Catherine is a science journalist who is devoted to creating evidence-backed books and resources to help people build joyful and meaningful lives and create what she calls screen/life balance. Her goal? To help people scroll less, live more, and have fun. To keep up with Price and her work, sign up for her "How to Feel Alive" newsletter on Substack. In her seminal book HOW TO BREAK UP WITH YOUR PHONE : The 30-Day Plan to Take Back Your Life, Price reveals how the time we spend on our smartphones affects us, and what we can do to create healthier long-term relationships with our devices. Evidence-based and thoroughly tested (and now available in more than 35 countries) HOW TO BREAK UP WITH YOUR PHONE® is an essential guide for anyone who owns a smartphone. In THE POWER OF FUN: HOW TO FEEL ALIVE AGAIN, Price explains why, far from being frivolous, fun is essential for a well lived, happy life. Groundbreaking, eye-opening, and packed with useful guidance, The Power of Fun was the inspiration for Price's TED talk on fun, which has been viewed more than 5 million times. Her newest book, THE AMAZING GENERATION: Your Guide to Fun and Freedom in a Screen-Filled World, is a collaboration with Jonathan Haidt, bestselling author of THE ANXIOUS GENERATION. Written specifically for tweens, it's a handbook for living a happy and exciting life that isn't hijacked by a smartphone. Price's written and multimedia work has appeared in publications including The Best American Science Writing, The New York Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Washington Post Magazine, Slate, Salon, Men's Journal, Mother Jones, The Oprah Magazine, and Parade, among others. Her other books include VITAMANIA: How Vitamins Revolutionized The Way We Think About Food, 101 PLACES NOT TO SEE BEFORE YOU DIE and THE BIG SUR BAKERY COOKBOOK: A Year in the Life of a Restaurant.
