"The worst thing about the miracle of modern communication is the Pavlovian pressure it places upon everyone to communicate when a bell rings." -Russell Baker
In the world of non-stop, technology driven, busy and bustling, go-go-go expectations, it's hard to know when it's time to stop and smell the proverbial roses. On today's episode, Abby and Margot talk about communication overload! The Warriors share stories about their experiences navigating the attention economy by means of a variety of forms of communication. Such as phone calls, texts, emails, social media, workflow spaces, apps and more. The pressure to communicate, to always 'be available,' or on call is exhausting and often anxiety provoking. Margot and Abby get candid about their views on these external pressures, and offer listeners the opportunity to reflect upon their relationship with communication in its many forms. They provide several ideas/options for managing demands while creating and maintaining sustainable boundaries to protect one's peace and mental health above all else.
