Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People
What happens when childhood is rewired by smartphones and social media? Jonathan Haidt joins Guy to break down how a single decade transformed attention, resilience, and the emotional lives of millions of kids. Drawing from his bestselling book The Anxious Generation, Jonathan explains why Gen Z’s spike in anxiety wasn’t random — and what we can do to make sure Gen Alpha doesn’t suffer the same fate.
Jonathan shares the research, the red flags, and the practical reforms that families, schools, and communities can act on today. If you’re a parent, educator, grandparent, or anyone who cares about young people, this conversation will change the way you think about childhood in the digital age.
