Digital Wellness: Examining Our Relationship with Technology and Building Real-Life Connections with Sanaz Abravani

Today on Unscripted Pivots, I sit down with Sanaz Abravani, a global citizenship and digital wellness advocate and executive producer of the documentary “The Cost of Convenience.” Sanaz has such a powerful story of witnessing the danger of digital addiction and committing to doing something about it. She explains why it’s so important to consider our relationships with technology and talks about the innovative work she’s doing to create in-person community, push for new advancements in wellness, and challenge people to think critically about the ethical challenges around AI and data sharing.

In our conversation, Sanaz talks about:
