Show Notes
Lars May, architect of the digital wellness movement and founder of Half The Story, discusses Australia's under-16 social media ban approaching its two-month mark. She argues the ban is a starting point but not a complete solution, emphasising the need for digital wellness education, parental empowerment, and teen involvement in behaviour change. May recommends practical strategies including creating screen-free zones, replacing device time with analogue activities like friendship bracelets, and treating tech health as seriously as physical health through daily conversations with children about their emotional relationship with technology.
