Shownotes
Hi y’all! 👋🏽 In todays, tech & media landscape, it feels like we've fallen down Alice in Wonderland's Rabbit Hole. Two spirit advocate and marketing expert, Taryn Talley, joined us live to unpack how we navigate this mess, while staying sane.
We got into the importance of storytelling for social change, the need to leave behind legacy media and social platforms, and the challenges posed by big tech algorithms. We close with ideas for grounding and community in these uncertain times. Watch the pod on YouTube or PeerTube.
