I sat down with amelia hruby, phd of off the grid clubhouse / Softer Sounds / Thought of You talk about her new book Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media — and what resulted was one of those rare conversations where you literally feel #blessed for the opportunity to have even floated through it. (Amelia tends to have that effect.)
Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media is a philosophical manifesto that refuses to accept the attention economy as inevitable. It’s not about 30-day internet detoxes or generic just-put-a-timer-on-your-social-media-time advice. It’s about reclaiming agency, understanding what algorithms actually are, and asking whether the tools we use can actually deliver on their promises.
In today’s episode, we talk about how this book has been in the works for three years (but only took a week to write), why we should rethink the term “attention economy,” why business books are boring (sorrryyyyyyy they are! they are!!!! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ) and Amelia gives us the inside baseball on the process of moving from a traditional publishing contract to self-publishing this book to profitability.
