My Tech-Wise Life: Growing Up and Making Choices in a World of Devices Hardcover - 2020

It's time to take our power back

We can barely imagine our lives without technology. Tech gives us tools to connect with our friends, listen to our music, document our lives, share our opinions, and keep up with what's going on in the world. Yet it also tempts us to procrastinate, avoid honest conversations, compare ourselves with others, and filter our reality.Sometimes, it feels like our devices have a lot more control over us than we have over them.

But it doesn't have to be that way.

In fact, we deserve so much more than what technology offers us. And when we're wise about how we use our devices, we can get more--more joy, more connection, more out of life.

Tech shouldn't get in the way of a life worth living. Let's get tech-wise.
