You gave me hope when I had lost a lot of it lately. Your expertise and the way you were able to break down the knowledge you have and keep a crowd engaged was admirable and priceless. I truly enjoyed myself.
Who would have thought I would laugh so much at a parent education presentation?!
Kim O.
Mother of Dual Household Children
"I had no idea just how much I would get out of this one little speech. Not only did Emily give me tools that I was able to implement right away, but also, I left feeling like I have also been doing a lot of things "right". That gave me a newfound feeling of confidence around this ever-changing issue; during these challenging times, that is priceless to me."
Beth G.

Investment: Sliding Scale With Budget Options
Why work with Emily?
Emily's mission is to empower parents to better understand and balance family screentime by building a Tech-Intentional™ movement.
Relationships
Before we can change anything else, we have to start with relationships. Relationships before screens, always.
Research
There is a lot of tech-funded "research" about the benefits of technology. My recommendations are rooted in the science of childhood development from independent researchers.
Balance
It’s not practical to ban technology. It is critical to find a sustainable balance that keeps our children safe and reinforces our core values.
Courage
I believe deeply in what I teach. It's why I am not afraid to speak up and fight for what is best for children, not companies.
