In this episode, I welcome author, artist, and educator Jessica Elefante. We dive deep into the culture of influence and technology's impact on humanity. Jessica shares her journey from creating Folk Rebellion, a company dedicated to leading a plugged-in world towards digital well-being, to what inspired her to write her book, Raising Hell, Living Well. She reflects on her experiences with burnout despite advocating for balance and the profound effect it had on her life and career. We discuss how technology triggers addictive behaviors and explore solutions like digital detoxing and the shift towards a mindful online presence. Our conversation underscores the necessity of legislative actions for online safety and the power of individual choice in breaking free from harmful systems. Tune in for a compelling discussion on navigating the digital age with intention and balance.
Jessica Elefante is the author of RAISING HELL, LIVING WELL: Freedom from Influence in a World Where Everyone Wants Something from You (including me) and is a leading artist and philosopher in the space of rethinking our cultural relationship with technology.
