827: From Screen Time to Quality Time: How to Build a Tech-Free Lifestyle

In a world where screens are practically an extension of ourselves, it’s hard to imagine life without them. From the moment we wake up to the notifications buzzing in our pockets, technology has woven itself into every facet of our daily routines. But what if there was a different way to live? My guest today has taken a bold step back and she’s here to share how YOU can do the same. Erin Loechner, founder of the global tech-free movement The Opt-Out Family, made headlines by walking away from a million social media followers to embrace a low-tech lifestyle. As a former influencer, Erin’s recent journey to tech-free living is nothing short of inspiring! Her new book, “The Opt-Out Family: How to Give Your Kids What Technology Can’t,” invites us to reconsider our relationship with technology—not just as families, but as individuals looking to reclaim our time and attention.  In our conversation, Erin shares her powerful story of transformation, the hidden costs of our smartphone dependence, and practical steps we can take to unplug and connect more deeply with ourselves and the world around us.
