108. 3 Safety Skills
Published on: Jun 5, 2026
Episode summary
Today is our first episode under the new name of the podcast: Digital Self-Defense. This isn't just a rebrand, though. The new name reflects how much my approach to teaching online safety has evolved.
Along with the new name, I want to introduce our new focus: 3 fundamental Safety Skills. Each episode will focus on one Safety Skill - a new way to learn it, apply it, or think about it differently.
Safety Skill 1: Protection Partners means building habits that help you pause and check with trusted people before making important digital decisions.
Safety Skill 2: Confident Awareness means knowing which threats matter most to you and learning how to face them with confidence.
Safety Skill 3: Master Keys means identifying which parts of your digital life unlock the most doors, then protecting them first and best.
You don't need to become a computer geek to defend yourself. Keep listening as we focus on these 3 Safety Skills, practice them over time, and prepare for the digital threats of today and tomorrow.
