Show Notes

Electronic devices are everywhere. In line at the grocery store, in our cars, at family dinners, and even in our bedrooms.

So, let me ask you a hard question: Is your family competing with a smartphone for your attention?

Are you so focused on what’s NEXT that you’re missing out on what’s happening right NOW?

David Norrie is the author of Turned On: Tuning In, In a Tuned-Out World, a book about presence, balance and seeing opportunities where others don’t. An Amazon bestseller in Christian and religious leadership, David’s work inspires us to embrace the communication age without losing our connection with each other. David and his wife, Angelike, are also the creators of Turned On, a platform dedicated to preserving the lost art of face-to-face connection in the home, at work and in our faith communities.

On this episode of The Live Out Loud Show, David joins Brooke to discuss the Turned On revolution, challenging us to develop an awareness of when technology is pulling us away from what’s really important. He explains how presence affords us the opportunity to give people the attention they deserve and reflects on the value of connecting with other people IRL. Listen in for David’s insight on guiding our kids to use social media safely and learn how you can ‘turn on’ your faith, family, health and career—and live a life free of regret!
