Unplugged Uprising: A Teen’s Guide to Breaking Free from Social Media is a straight-talking guide to taking back your time, attention, and confidence online – written by 17-year-old author Avia Kesler.
By eleventh grade, Avia founded a school club called Unplugged Uprising that inspired this book, guiding more than twenty students to reclaim their lives and build stronger habits offline. Instead of lecturing about “screen time,” she pulls back the curtain on how today’s platforms use algorithms, dopamine loops, and FOMO to keep you scrolling – and how that affects mental health, sleep, body image, identity, and relationships.
