Today, I had an insightful interview with Dany Elachi, founder of The Heads Up Alliance, examining the No Phones policy that every school in the country should be implementing—the benefits, the evidence, and the challenges. Dany shares how community is the solution to an issue that so many parents feel they are facing alone—how to say "not yet" to a smartphone and/or social media.

In this episode:
Forming alliances with other families
Keeping teens off social media
Creating a consistent phone-free environment in Australian schools
Empirical vs anecdotal evidence
Behavioural challenges in schools
Mental health, bullying, academic outcomes
Catholic and Independent Schools
Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World by Cal Newport
The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt
 Dr Michael Carr-Gregg: “A no brainer from the university of bleeding obvious”
