Get Offline: Living and Working without Social Media and Big Tech
About the Session:
Wondering how to live and work with a little (or a lot more) freedom from doom scrolling, the incessant notifications, and uber-connected devices and gadgets?
In this session, you'll explore simple, tangible, and actionable steps to solving the various challenges that emerge from our digitally maximalist culture. Hillary will share her journey from dumbing down her smart phone to not using one at all, plus the wins and obstacles she currently faces as a digital minimalist in the job market. Leave this session with a personalized plan for getting offline -- in whatever capacity you desire. We'll leave plenty of time for questions and troubleshooting.
