Mark Zuckerberg wants us to have AI friends.
But what we really need is each other.
Tech may create synthetic friendships but human connection still wins.

Would you survive, without internet?
The Day the Plug Was PulledIt started as a flicker. A pause in the WiFi. A buffering wheel on every app.Then, silence. No notifications. No emails. No newsfeeds. No next-day delivery. Just a blinking ...

A childhood, offline.
Yes this photo is a little blurry - but that is me, the little one!I didn’t grow up with a screen in my hand.There was no constant ping, no scroll, no endless feed of other people’s lives. I didn’t even own a smartphone until I was 18.I grew up in Dorset, in a house with two and a half acres of garden (oh how much I appreciate that now) – it was a wild and wonderful childhood playground. It wasn’t landscaped or manicured. It was alive and untamed in all the best ways.Summer holidays felt endless

At a BBQ this Easter weekend, someone asked me 'but why can't people just put their phones away at home? Why do they need an event for it?'
Well, I said - do you know anyone who does that? Do you do it?
So what about you? Do you put your phone away for hours at a time at home?

Why did I start The Digital Detox Club?
It wasn’t because I hate technology.
It’s because I love what happens when we put it down.
So I created something I wish existed:
The Digital Detox Club – a series of pop-up, offline hangouts where people can switch off from tech and reconnect with real life.
