Welcome to The Thriving Family, a Focus on the Family Canada podcast.

In today’s episode, we have the joy of introducing Arlene Pellicane. Arlene is a speaker, host of the Happy Home podcast, and author of several books including Parents Rising, Making Marriage Easier and Screen Kids. Arlene has been featured on the Today Show, Fox & Friends, the Wall Street Journal, FamilyLife Today, and Focus on the Family and is the spokesperson for National Marriage Week. Arlene and her husband, James, have three children and live in San Diego. They have raised their kids without social media, video games, and smartphones and inspire others to scroll less and live more. To learn more, visit her website at ArlenePellicane.com. This was dynamic conversation about parenting, navigating screen time, and what it was like collaborating with Gary Chapman!
