Opting out of technology with Erin Loechner

The Christian Parenting Podcast - Motherhood, Teaching kids about Jesus, Intentional parenting, Raising Christian kids

Today’s episode is one you won't want to miss. I’m joined by the delightful and insightful Erin Loechner. Erin began her career as a social media influencer and has since transitioned to a homeschool mama who has completely stepped away from social media. She shares her journey and insights in her new book, The Opt-Out Family: How to Give Your Kids What Technology Can’t.

Here’s what you’ll takeaway in today’s episode:

• How to make informed choices about technology use in your family without falling into the trap of tech-bashing.
• Understanding the influence of social media algorithms and tech companies targeting our children.
• Erin and I share personal stories and mistakes we’ve made with tech in our own families.
• Practical ways to engage your family in activities that are more captivating than any algorithm.

Join us for a refreshing and non-judgmental discussion that will equip you with the tools and encouragement to navigate technology in your family thoughtfully and intentionally.
