Freed to Lead |Break Free from What Holds You Back and Live Confidently in Christ

We live in a world where screens are everywhere — in the grocery store, at the park, even around our dinner tables. Technology tied to us has become the new norm, but at what cost?In this episode of Freed to Lead, I sit down with Shannon Coulter, founder of Planet Fasa and author of the children’s series The Fasa Tales, to talk about how technology is shaping our kids and stealing more than just our time. Shannon shares why she walked away from corporate America to help families rediscover the joy of play, imagination, and healthy rhythms.This isn’t about going screen-free — it’s about creating a new way forward. We dive into the divisiveness of our “devices,” what constant scrolling is doing to our creativity (and our kids’), and practical ways to build freedom into your home so you stay connected to the right power source.If you’ve been longing to renew your mind, reclaim your time, and raise confident, Christ-centered kids who aren’t bound by devices, this conversation will equip and encourage you to live sharpened, not dulled, by technology.👉 Connect with Shannon at sscoulter.com👉 For more resources to live whole, healed and healthy inside-out visit me at kathrynmay.comHave a topic you'd love to hear about?
