In this episode, Aubrey Schmalle, a pediatric occupational therapist, talks about how technology hugely affect children with sensory issues and what are some helpful tips to minimize technology exposure.

Aubrey Schmalle is currently working to find ways to expand her message beyond the world of occupational therapy and make 'Body Activated Learning' a mindset for parents and education raising children in a digital world who need different habits and routines to be successful.

Aubrey’s mission is to empower adults to be able to better support neurologically diverse children both in schools and in the community in a truly inclusive way by building the habits of success based in sensory supportive movement with the needs of a digital generation in mind.
