About this listen

You know that feeling... you pick up your phone to check one thing, and 45 minutes later you wake up from a trance, wondering where the time went? What if the secret to getting that time back wasn't to fight the apps, but to simply... let them go?

Welcome to One Part of Everything, where we apply big ideas to everyday life.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • The Attention Vortex: Discover the invisible forces (or "pendulums") behind your social media feeds and understand how they are engineered to harvest your attention for profit.

  • Emotional Clickbait: Learn why these forces thrive on any strong emotion—positive or negative—and how to reclaim your power by choosing not to engage with content designed to manipulate you.

  • The Antidote Toolkit: A pair of simple yet powerful strategies—'Let it Dissolve' and 'Break the Pattern'—to handle energy-draining situations, from online outrage to real-life conflict.

Please add your thoughts and experiences in the comments. They're always welcome and help us all gain new perspectives.
