JOMO > FOMO: Raising Kids Who Aren’t Ruled by Screens with Christina Crook

In a world ruled by FOMO—the fear of missing out—what if the real antidote isn’t more digital connection, but less? In this encouraging episode, Davies Owens sits down with author and digital wellbeing advocate Christina Crook to explore the power of JOMO - the Joy of Missing Out.

Christina shares her story of stepping away from technology, launching a global movement, and helping parents and schools reclaim space for what matters most: real connection, creativity, and Christ-centered joy. From setting tech boundaries to building intentional family habits, this episode is packed with practical advice for parents, educators, and school leaders navigating the challenges of raising kids in a hyperconnected world.

🎧 Tune in to hear:

• Why “shame-based” digital parenting doesn’t work
• How schools and parents can build healthy tech boundaries together
• How to create joyful alternatives to screen time
• What JOMO really means—and how to live it out
