Digital Wellness is the New Health Frontier: Everything You Need to Know Now

  • Summary

  • Catt is in a powerful and timely conversation this week with Larissa May, founder of #HalfTheStory, a non-profit dedicated to improving the next generation’s relationship with technology. This ep is an absolute must-listen if you want to protect your loved ones from the dangers of social media and tech. We encourage you to arm yourself with the reality of the impact as we know it today, in hopes of a better tomorrow. How does technology impact our brains? How can parents reframe the use of tech and social media in the home? Why are children more anxious today than ever before? What are the staggering statistics about the impact of social media on our youth? What should the role of schools be in students’ use of screens on campus? Why is putting kids at the forefront of the digital wellness revolution so critical? Plug back into LIFE with this sobering conversation that’ll help you and your kids get a grip on the hold tech has on most of our lives. Larissa started #HalfTheStory in college, after facing her own struggles with social media and almost taking her own life. As of this coming October, Larissa will have been working towards this cause for 10 years. In the past year, she has worked on the policy front to help pass multiple Bills to help protect our youth, joined Oprah in a conversation about teens and mental health, spoke at Davos to get the voices of our teens in front of some of the most influential leaders, and this month, kicked off the first-ever Digital Civics Academy, a program co-designed by youth, for youth that offers hands-on advocacy and organizational opportunities, equipping the next generation of activists with the skills to influence policies shaping the digital future. #HalfTheStory is funded by incredible names including Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation and Meghan and Harry's Archewell Foundation.
