A good conversation is just two people exchanging ideas. This podcast is about exactly that. I chat with people I admire to find out how they think and what's on their minds, and I hope that these insightful and diverse chats will give creative people the tools and confidence to challenge conventional thinking to go after what they want.

Finding Joy Amid the Social Media Chaos: A Creative's Guide to Navigating Online Overload

In this deep-dive conversation, we tackle the all-too-familiar struggle of finding joy in the digital age, especially for us creatives navigating the noisy realm of social media.

From the relentless bombardment of marketing to the quest for genuine connections, we explore how to sift through the clutter, prioritise our happiness, and reclaim our online spaces.

Join us as we share insights and strategies for maintaining creativity and joy amidst the chaos, fostering meaningful interactions, and discovering content that truly resonates.

Social Media Overload: Acknowledging the overwhelm caused by endless marketing and the realisation that we can't possibly consume all that content. It's about setting boundaries and seeking quality over quantity.
Seeking Authentic Joy: The journey to find what genuinely brings us happiness, often leading us away from traditional social platforms and towards more fulfilling content and activities.
Content Curation for Creativity: Discussing the importance of curating our feeds and engagements to better serve our creative spirits. This includes unfollowing what no longer serves us and actively seeking out spaces and content that inspire.
Rediscovering Offline Joys: The reminder that sometimes, stepping away from the screen and engaging in offline activities or simply being present can reignite our creative energies and overall sense of joy.
Navigating the Ad Maze: A candid look at how the quality and tactics of online advertising impact our online experience, with a call to seek out more genuine and less intrusive forms of content.

Feeling overwhelmed by the digital clutter? You're not alone. Let's take a step back together, reassess what truly matters, and make intentional choices about how we engage online.

Whether it's fine-tuning our feeds, taking social media sabbaticals, or diving into projects that light us up, there's a path to reclaiming our joy and creativity.

Share your journey with us, and let's inspire one another to cultivate spaces that spark joy and foster genuine connections.
