Today’s guest is a great example of someone who should have been on the podcast before now, and numerous times to boot.
To make up for my oversite though, Arlene Pellicane and I will touch on several of her books in our conversation today.
We spend the majority of our time discussing concepts from her 2017 offering called Calm, Cool, and Connected: 5 Digital Habits for a More Balanced Life.
Another of her books we discuss is Growing Up Social: Raising Relational Kids in a Screen-Driven World, a book she co-wrote with New York Times bestselling author Dr. Gary Chapman.
More recently, Arlene released Parents Rising: 8 Strategies for Raising Kids Who Love God, Respect Authority, and Value What’s Right.
She’s is a delight to talk to and will offer a number of strategies for helping you and your family live a more satisfying and fulfilling life.
