      Ep#6 Tech vs Talk: Rebuilding Family Connection in a Digital World
      Jan 29 2026
      In this episode of The Power of Family, we sit down with Pete Bombachi, founder of GenWell, Canada's Human Connection movement, for a deeply honest conversation about technology, loneliness, and what families are quietly losing in a screen-focused world. Together, we explore how technology, while here to stay, has slowly replaced face-to-face connection with convenience, distraction, and isolation. Pete shares why loneliness isn't something to fear, but something to understand, and how chronic disconnection impacts families across generations from children and teens to parents, grandparents, and seniors. The conversation challenges the idea that connection can be outsourced or replaced by digital interaction, reminding us that proximity is not the same as presence. This episode invites families to rethink their daily habits, reclaim intentional time together, and recognize that social health is just as essential as physical or emotional health. Without blame or judgment, the discussion offers clarity, compassion, and practical perspective on how small moments of connection like shared meals, walks, conversations can restore resilience, healing, and belonging.

      Episode 5 Tech v. Talk : How Screens Are Changing Family Connection with Mary Catherine Licensed Professional Counselor & Certified Christian Life Coach
      Jan 22 2026
      Technology is everywhere, at the dinner table, in bedrooms, and in the hands of our children. In this episode of The Power of Family, we explore Tech vs Talk, a timely conversation about how screens are reshaping family relationships, communication, and emotional well-being across generations. Joined by Mary Kathryn Liscinski, a licensed mental health counselor with over 14 years of experience working with individuals and families, the conversation dives into what parents and caregivers are seeing every day: increased conflict over screen time, rising anxiety and depression among young people, disrupted sleep, and growing disconnection at home. Together, they unpack how screen use affects the developing brain, why children and teens are especially vulnerable, and how online pressures like comparison, bullying, and unsafe interactions are impacting youth mental health. This episode isn't about blaming technology or parents. It's about awareness, balance, and solutions. You'll hear practical ideas for setting healthier boundaries, strengthening face-to-face communication, and creating emotionally safe spaces where families can reconnect and grow. If you've ever wondered how to protect your child while staying connected in a digital world, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and hope. TAKEAWAYS Technology creates a virtual sleepover environment for children. There is a significant generational gap in technology understanding. Mental health issues among youth are rising due to screen time. Screens have addictive properties similar to drugs. Social media is identified as a major cause of mental health problems. Excessive screen time affects brain development in young people. Parents should enforce no technology in bedrooms. AI lacks moral values and should not replace human interaction. Healthy brain development requires face-to-face communication. Setting boundaries around technology use is essential for family health. Guest Bio: Mary Catherine Liscinski is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Christian Life Coach. She has been a counselor for 14 years; in 2022 she became certified to treat Digital Addiction (smartphones, social media, and video games). She has her own practice and can coach anywhere in the United States. She loves working with teens, adults, and families, she has a passion for seeing families thrive. In her spare time, she loves to read and be outside, and when she can read outside, it's the best of both worlds.

      Trailer Episode 4 If the pain feels unbearable and you don't know where to start—this is for you.
      Dec 27 2025

      In this trailer from The Power of Family Podcast, we explore a powerful yet gentle entry point to healing: writing as a tool for emotional release and self-healing. When family pain feels overwhelming and forgiveness feels impossible, this practice offers a place to begin.

      This episode touches on:

      • Healing trauma and emotional pain

      • Faith beyond religion and self-belief

      • Forgiveness in families and generational healing

      • Writing for mental health and emotional clarity

      If you're navigating family conflict, unresolved pain, or the effects of past trauma, this conversation offers a compassionate starting point. Trauma does not mean you are broken—it means there is something within you asking to be released.

      Even if you're not ready, willingness is enough.

      🎙️ Listen to the full episode to explore faith, forgiveness, and family healing—starting with yourself.
