Welcome to Screenspire.

Screenspire is a digital wellness education platform that delivers research-informed, compassion-fuelled resources to teens and young adults so that they can use digital media to achieve well-being, social connection, career clarity, and purpose.  


My mission is to provide you with practical, research-backed strategies for daily media use habits that disrupt the anxieties of the digital age and help you to live a life that inspires you.  


To help you feel encouraged, hopeful, and supported as you navigate the digital age (while managing the rest of your busy life), I deliver research-backed digital wellness articles, down-to-earth digital wellness workshops, and entertaining multimedia content that provides you with clear tips on how to get the most out of your daily screen time.

MY STORY

VIDEOS & STREAMS

Why Digital Wellness?

 

Now more than ever before, we have the research to show that our media use habits impact our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. After experiencing the extreme highs and lows of being a chronic screen user, I devoted my career to creating an empowering youth media landscape and created Screenspire to provide busy teens and young adults with high-quality, research-informed, and accessible strategies for building healthy daily media use habits that support your mental health, goal-setting, healthy relationships, and coming of age. By doing so, I’ll unplug the anxieties that come from digital media use and inspire all of us to live fulfilling and purpose-driven lives online and offline.
