Super-foods, the Blame Game and Toxic Positivity - Jocelyn Brewer

Description:

Technology is getting a bad rep. In fact, gaming is a super-food, productivity itself is 'toxic', and urban geography is more to blame than iPhones when we consider the challenges of society today.

In this episode, we welcome Jocelyn Brewer, a Sydney-based registered psychologist with a special interest in the psychology of technology
and staying human in a digital age. In 2013 she created Digital Nutrition as a positive framework for addressing digital wellbeing issues and
our love-hate relationship with technology. In addition to her private psychology practice, Jocelyn is a sought-after speaker, educator and media commentator.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Why gaming is a super-food
  • Why tech-is a convenient, but misplaced 'fall-guy' for the challenges of today
  • Why critical thinking lies at the heart of our future relationships with tech
