Description: Welcome to the latest episode of our podcast, where we explore ways to bring more joy and connection into our daily lives. Today, we're thrilled to chat with Heath Wilson and Joey Odom, the founders of Aro - a company dedicated to helping families put down their phones and spend quality time together. The conversation starts with a surprising statistic - screen time has become the biggest battleground in families today, overtaking drugs, sex, and alcohol. But instead of dwelling on the negative, Heath and Joey share inspiring stories of families who have successfully disconnected from their screens and reconnected with each other. They highlight the importance of giving our loved ones our full attention and in that way bestow value on them. They share practical tips on how we can break the habit of mindless scrolling and focus on what truly matters. The founders of Aro also remind us that time is precious and we don't realize how little of it we have with the people we love. But the good news is that with the right tools and mindset, we can make the most of our time together and create lasting memories. The conversation ends on a hopeful note as Heath and Joey emphasize that we're not alone in this struggle. They assure us that by taking small steps to disconnect and recharge, we can cultivate stronger and happier relationships with our families.
