Welcome back to Honing In and to my interview with Amelia Hruby.
Amelia Hruby is a feminist writer, educator, and podcaster with a PhD in philosophy. She is the founder of Softer Sounds podcast studio, and the host of Off the Grid, a podcast about leaving social media. Her new book, Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media is out now.
Here are some of the things Amelia and I discuss:
- Amelia’s 2026 sabbatical as a way to set boundaries with her work and spark creative energy
- How our academic training affects the way we think and make sense of things
- Valuing theoretical and embodied knowledge when it comes to business and marketing
- Big questions folks are asking about social media, big tech, and AI
- Amelia tells us all about "COME TO CLASS: How to teach & sell online with confidence & care" (see you there!)
