Author: Marcylle Combs February 25, 2026 Duration: 36:02

Kelsey Green discusses the detrimental effects of excessive screen time on focus, creativity, and mental health, particularly among youth. She shares her journey from a background in environmental conservation to becoming a consultant focused on digital minimalism. The discussion covers the challenges of navigating a digital business landscape, the impact of technology on interpersonal relationships, and strategies for setting boundaries with screens. Kelsey emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, presence, and community in reclaiming autonomy from technology.

The research is sobering:
We check screens an average of over 250 times a day.
Screen use is linked to increased anxiety, reduced attention span, inability to focus, and a shrinking capacity to sit withdiscomfort and our own thoughts.

We are more digitally connected than ever, and sadly more isolated, distracted, and depleted than we’ve ever been.

This experiment in presence will help elucidate your relationship to your devices, and where you may need to address your use of them, in order to reset your nervous systemboost creativity, and rebuild real connection, with yourself and with others.
