Can ethics prevail over Big Tech's capitalist incentives? For too long we've accepted that moving fast and breaking things (including our children's mental health) was just the price of progress. But what emerged from these courtrooms tells a different story.  In this episode, Prerna breaks down the two landmark trials against Meta, what was revealed, and what it tells us about the systems that got us here... and why we have the power right now to demand something different from AI. --- Visit our website for the show notes and more!  Sign up for the Newsletter to join our community (and get a free meditation!).

Tech deliberately rewards our brains. We rarely do. Why is it so hard to let yourself feel good even when things are going well? Our attention is being shaped by systems designed to reward us constantly. Real life doesn't work that way. This episode explores why and some ways to change that. --- Visit our website for the show notes and more!  Sign up for the Newsletter to join our community (and get a free meditation!).

What if WE are the adults in the room? We walked into the social media era starry eyed. The promises were big, and most of us didn't see the harms coming.

In this episode, I share why it actually gives me hope. --- Visit our website for the show notes and more!  Sign up for the Newsletter to join our community (and get a free meditation!).

In a world that often measures our worth by our professional achievements, it's crucial to recognize that our value extends far beyond our careers. I gathered with community in Brooklyn, New York for this live podcast panel discussion around our current digital age, productivity, and well-being.We discussed who we are outside of what we do. How can we ensure that we are holistic individuals who love ourselves and others regardless of our productivity and job titles? What practices can help us grow in other areas outside the workspace, and how can we remain happy and proud of ourselves even in seasons where we are not outwardly "winning"?This event was a much-needed reminder that NONE OF US ARE ALONE in society, as isolated as we may feel or be. Societal norms around work can make us feel worthless — remember that you are enough simply because you are. Nothing else, just being.Moderators:  Prerna Manchanda & Pennie AnassiPanelists: Jaconna Jacobs, Julius Stukes Jr, Anthony Duncan, & Liz Beecroft If you made it in person, thanks for coming out.
