👵📱 Technology isn’t just for the young—it’s for the young-at-heart, too.
In this episode of Your Tech Makeover, I’m diving into how we can help seniors get comfortable with modern technology—and how families can make the transition easier, friendlier, and even fun.
Whether you’re a senior looking to get more out of your smartphone, or someone supporting a parent or grandparent who’s just starting to FaceTime or use email, this episode is full of simple, practical advice to build confidence without the overwhelm.
🎯 We’ll cover:
🖥️ Choosing the right devices for usability and accessibility
📲 The best apps for communication, health, and entertainment
🧠 Easy strategies to build tech confidence—step by step
🧓 Common roadblocks seniors face and how to solve them
✍️ A personal story from my first tech class at the San Carlos (CA) Senior Center
💡 How you can set someone up for tech success (even if you’re not a tech expert)
Plus, there’s a quick sponsor message and a special note for anyone who’s ever said, “I’m not good with technology.” (Spoiler: You probably just needed a better guide.)
