The algorithms vying for our attention and hijacking our time can be overcome as we build communities that choose real life over constant distraction. We’re reversing the loneliness epidemic by bringing people together who are ready to live life on purpose.
By taking decisive action, we can turn the tide. And we must. After all, there’s a lot at stake here.
Children who are highly addicted to video games. This makes them 2-3 times more likely to report suicidal thoughts and behavior.
People who reported moderate to severe symptoms of a mental health condition in 2023.
Americans who feel emotionally disconnected and lonely from day to day.
Percentage of Americans that admit they’re addicted to their smartphones.
One family standing alone against the tide of tech doesn’t stand much chance of surviving. But when hundreds of families stand together to demand a better life for their kids, they become a force to be reckoned with.
Knowing you’re not the only family wanting to hold tech at bay is game changing! There’s power in coming together in defense of a play-based childhood.
If you’re looking to reclaim your time, connect meaningfully with others, and be held accountable for the kind of life you’d like to live, then join us! You don’t have to fight this uphill battle alone.
We’re not here to tell you how to live. We’re not here to set hard-and-fast rules for your tech. We’re just here to wrap our arms around you and assure you that you’ve got this! Let us show you what a healthy tech/life balance can look like.
More and more, therapists are noticing a link between their clients’ mental health and their screen use. It’s becoming standard protocol to ask about smartphone use as a treatment plan is put in place.
We offer a 10-Step Break Free resource clinicians can use to assist their clients in striking a healthy balance with their screens. Let us come and present at your clinic on this subject and work together to find a realistic solution.
In schools and work places throughout the nation we’re seeing more dysregulation than ever before. Why is that? From 2010-2015 something happened. There was a significant uptick in mental health crises that appeared in lock-step with the increase of smartphone access.
If we’re going to reverse this trend, it will take decisive action and bold steps to get our time and attention back on track. We need to return to a more organic way of interacting with the world and with each other. Let us show you how.

It’s not easy to hold a hard line with tech. And none of us can do it perfectly. But with clear guidelines focused on aligning our screen use with our values and ambitions, we can make a start as we link arms and charge full speed ahead.
This is a term coined by Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation. We thrive when exposed to multiple settings trying out a variety of new things. We’re at our best when we can connect with others in a meaningful way, and when we find a purpose bigger than ourselves.
