episode 5: 5) Untangling Teens and Tech in a Wired World with Christina Crook
Have you ever heard the saying FOMO? How about JOMO?
Do you ever feel like you're losing the battle against your kid's screens? Are you struggling for solutions to find balance in a wired world?
Take FOMO - fear of missing out - and flip it on its head - that's the joy of missing out.
JOMO, the joy of missing out on the right things, means deliberately avoiding life-taking things and their detrimental effects on teens' wellbeing, like toxic comparison, loneliness, and excessive hustle, to make space for life-giving relationships and projects.
In this episode, Christina Crook, a pioneer and leading voice in the field of digital well-being, will help us raise awareness about digital health and well-being in the context of parenting teens.
Christina is also sharing:
✅ Christina's story and what lead her to create JOMO

✅ Why are we losing ourselves in social media?
✅ How to balance technology and family and cultivate healthy screen use
✅ How we use tech matters to our happiness
✅ Setting up consistent boundaries for screentime
✅ Fostering family connections at Christina's home
