Itching to ditch Instagram? Foster and Cesar sit down with feminist writer, philosopher, and podcaster Amelia Hruby, author of Your Attention is Sacred and host of the Off the Grid podcast, for a conversation about social media addiction, the attention economy, and what it really means to reclaim your life, your creativity, and your authentic self from the algorithms designed to keep you scrolling. From the hidden cost of being a content creator on social media to the radical idea that you don't need Instagram to build a thriving business or creative career, this episode explores intentional living, digital boundaries, and the quiet, sacred power of choosing where you put your attention. If you’re burned out, creatively drained, or quietly resentful of the time you spend on your phone, this one’s for you.

In this episode they explore: 

  • What happens to your sense of self when you spend years trying to please an algorithm? 
  • The one thing no one tells you about quitting social media 
  • Can you actually build a creative business or career without social media?
