I am an Oakville-based parent with two grown children and, according to others to whom I’m eternally grateful, a widely-recognized educator on numerous social platforms including Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Discord, and Snapchat. And now, Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Since the early days of Facebook (2004) I continue to believe in and witness the positive power of technology. In a typical week during the school year you will find me in a school gym, auditorium, corporate venue or conference inspiring people to take what they do every-day online, and emphasize it through the lens of gratitude, integrity, clarity and intention. The potential, growth and benefits that Social Media and AI platforms provide are significant.
But along with the benefits comes risk, chiefly that of self-worth and the need to be validated as “being enough” in the world via ‘Likes’ and other subjective acknowledgment mechanisms.
Twenty-one years teaching the benefits (and risks) of social media, and now AI, I relish inspiring individuals to realize their digital potential with a positive, interactive and mindful experience that delivers consistent, purposeful and joyful results.
