A Good Match For:
Those who have noticed an unsettling relationship with social media and digital devices in their own lives or that of their children. Individuals who long for a time when human interaction felt more meaningful, and the grasp of technology was less pervasive.

Not A Good Match For:
Those who are convinced everything is fine as long as there’s Wi-Fi. Individuals uninterested in face-to-face interaction or entirely content with a screen-filled existence.

“The Great Rewiring devastated the social lives of Gen Z by connecting them to everyone in the world and disconnecting them from the people around them.”
