UNPLUGGED WELLNESS
screen addiction is
fragmenting our attention
polarizing our country
collapsing our communities
NOT ON OUR WATCH
Unplugged Wellness is a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to building and reinforcing community through screen-free, fun-centric, connection-oriented projects and experiences.
Combat Community Collapse
FROM
TO
Systemic problems require systemic solutions
Our towns are built for cars, not connection. Our culture prizes individualism over community. Single-family homes isolate us from our neighbors, requiring effort to socialize, leaving us at home alone filling the void with screens.
Connection is a skill, community is a verb, fun is a tool
WE DON’T HAVE THE FIX.
Cultural change always starts small— one rider, then another. Unplugged Wellness wants to ride with you.
BUT WE HAVE A VOICE.

for the connected-and-free, active-and-playful, sustainably-wild, lifestyle. Our future is not on screens and community is the answer. Let’s connect. As an ultra-marathoner, WFR, former pro-skier, expert coach & guide, I led a non-profit organization and taught middle school science before joining forces with Marsh to birth Unplugged. As a high school PE teacher with a M.Ed., I consider myself a professional fun facilitator. An important title in the face of fast-paced, hyper-serious dopamine induced convenience culture we live in. Please, say hello, and let’s make beautiful things.

…Slightly different flag.
All of us, we’re trying to live joyous, loving, fun lives and we have a common enemy: scrolling. It keeps us from the real world, where reality happens. I’m a coach, guide, host who loves to move through nature, celebrate our common humanity, and embrace a low-angle lifestyle.

But I was open and prepared to experience discomfort around acceptance and fitting in.
Now I feel capable, strong, grounded, loved, seen, held, supported, and valued. The adventure brought me back to an inner knowing that I am enough as I am; that my tribe can be attracted with ease; and that playfulness is never far away.” — Maria, Unplugged Adventure, MT, 2024

.. the deep end of existence. Out of my comfort zone but in my element, surrounded by a dream-team of superstars. I never know what I’ll get- physically, socially, emotionally, spiritually- but I know I’ll grow and be supported along the way.” - Ian, Unplugged Adventure, UT, 2023
