Today, we sit down with JENNIE KETCHAM CROOKS, licensed clinical social worker, anxiety specialist and author of LOOK UP: The 30-Day Path to Digital Minimalism and Real Life Maximalism. The book guides readers through 30 consecutive days of evidence-based interventions for managing our out-of-control digital consumption to improve our meaningful real-world connections and better align our actions with our values. Jennie’s expertise gives us actionable ways to adjust our behavioral patterns toward healthier digital habits.  She has appeared on Oprah, The Dr. Drew Show and The View, is the founder of the West Coast Anxiety Clinic, and an OCD specialist.  Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, Jennie published a memoir titled “I am Jennie” through Gallery Books and made her own life changes on a televised VH1 show. She’s appeared on numerous talk shows, radio shows, and podcasts, lectured at Harvard, consulted as an in-house “sexpert” for Lovers, and her writing has appeared in Huffington Post and the New York Times. We have an in-depth conversation on her incredible journey, with Jennie offering tangible tips and tools for living a life that feels good offline.
