As artificial intelligence reshapes the digital world, many families are rethinking how they share photos, milestones, and personal memories online. In this episode, we explore the growing concerns around privacy, data ownership, and social media, and discuss how families can stay connected while maintaining greater control over their personal content.

Joining the conversation are OurFamily+ co-founders Billy and Rachel, who share the inspiration behind creating a private family-sharing platform designed to help people preserve memories and foster meaningful connections without relying on traditional social media. Billy, a software engineer, writer, and media preservationist, and Rachel, a software engineer and artist, discuss the challenges modern parents face when balancing convenience, connection, and privacy.

They are joined by Shelley and Ashley, two OurFamily+ users who offer personal perspectives on how families across generations navigate sharing family moments in today's digital landscape. Together, the guests explore the decisions parents make when posting about their children, the impact of AI on online privacy, and practical ways families can remain connected while protecting what matters most.
