Yarona Boster on Parenting in a Digital World and Reclaiming Real Connection

Some days it feels like the world is coming at us faster than we can breathe. The screens, the noise, the pressure to keep up. It can leave us overwhelmed and disconnected from what really matters. What if the discomfort we try so hard to avoid is actually where the healing begins?

That is exactly what I explored with Yarona Boster. She is an advanced certified life coach, TEDx speaker, bestselling author, and the daughter of a Holocaust survivor whose story of loss and resilience has shaped her life’s work. Yarona does not shy away from the hard stuff. She helps people lean into it, whether it is grief, parenting in the digital age, or learning to unplug long enough to remember who we are.

We covered so much in this conversation:
• Why unplugging from technology feels so hard and how to make it easier
• How boredom can be a doorway to creativity and connection
• Parenting kids who are growing up surrounded by screens
• The truth about grief and loss and why “you will be okay” can feel dismissive
• What it means to sit with someone in their pain instead of rushing to fix it

What stood out most to me: Yarona reminds us that pain is not something to run from. It is a teacher. When we allow ourselves and our kids to fully feel it, we open the door to growth, resilience, and deeper love.
