put down your phone and start a movement. introducing #dinnermode
DESCRIPTION
I was invited to give a talk on the BOLD state at INBOUND14, HubSpot's annual conference. In my talk I launched #DinnerMode, a new national movement to put down our phones at dinner and enjoy the food we're eating and the people we're eating with. These slides tell the story of how I came to this idea and the journey I was on before launch.TRANSCRIPT

Being Present We are not living in the moment when we’re always rushing to the next thing.

Spark Creativity We need to spend time away from technology to recharge our systems.
