  • My gratitude for Emily's guidance on creating a tech-intentional plan for my family is immense. She met me where I was at and helped me navigate some big challenges, with understanding, compassion, and optimism. I appreciated her thoughtful follow-up emails after each session summarizing what we talked about and offering more ideas and resources. Each family's relationship to tech is going to look different and Emily understands that. Her program was such a worthy investment! "

Being tech-intentional™ means prioritizing relationships over screens.

When used, screens serve relationships and never replace them. We protect our values. We nurture our children. We resist screen use that interferes with healthy development.  

In other words:

Less is more

Later is better

Relationships and skills before screens

Why work with Emily?

The Screentime Consultant helps communities become Tech-Intentional. Emily empowers families and schools to prioritize relationships, skills, and safety with her tech-intentional approach.

Integrity

Integrity means doing the right thing even when no one else is watching. This is why Emily doesn’t endorse or hold affiliate relationships with any tech-based product, service, or company. We respect the work you’ve already done and support your leadership when you make courageous changes.

Curiosity

Curiosity means starting from a place of non-judgmental questioning. It means assuming best intentions, a willingness to learn more, and a desire to make change with new information. Emily replaces judgment with curiosity in the work she does with families, schools, and communities. We start where you are. 

Courage

Courage is being afraid and choosing to act in spite of the fear. Emily knows that change doesn’t come from sitting and watching. We have to not only talk our talk, but walk our walk. Emily works with people from all over the world, because at the end of the day, this is about protecting children and childhood, not promoting a specific agenda.

Curiosity

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.
