Becoming an Opt-Out Family with Erin Loechner [Episode 354]

Today I’m sharing a delightful conversation that I had with Erin Loechner author of, “The Opt Out Family.” Erin and I dive into what it really means to create a low-tech family life and explore practical ways to reduce technology’s grip on your home while cultivating richer, more meaningful alternatives that both parents and children genuinely enjoy. This is longer than my usual episodes, but the conversation was just too good to cut anything out! 

In this conversation, Erin shares:

• Her journey from social media influencer to intentionally stepping away from screens

• Simple ways to bring her family motto to life in your home

• Practical ideas for discovering what truly delights your children

• How to earn your children’s trust and respect in a digital world

• What it looks like to opt INTO wonder, creativity, and human connection

I hope this episode gives you plenty to think about as you consider technology’s role in your family life.
