Tiffany Shlain, Emmy-nominated filmmaker, Marshall McLuhan Book Award Winner, Founder of the Webby Awards, and Albert Einstein Foundation Genius, joins us for a delightful and informative conversation about the future of work in a hybrid world – working in combination at home and in-office, and how to balance what can be an endless, always-on, always-receiving life with a weekly day off to rest, rejuvenate, process, and envision our lives for next week and beyond.
With humor and wisdom, Shlain shares her story, offers lessons she has learned, and provides a blueprint for how to do it yourself. ”Bolstered with fascinating and germane facts about neuroscience, philosophy, psychology, and the history of the concept of a day of rest” (Publishers Weekly) the national best-selling book 24/6: Giving up Screens One Day a Week to Get More Time, Creativity, and Connection (Winner of the Marshall McLuhan Outstanding Book Award) makes the case for incorporating this weekly reset into our 24/7 lives, issuing a call to rebalance ourselves and our society.
