Save The Kids Ep. 176 Raising Hell Living Well with Jessica Elefante

Save the Kids Season 4 Episode 3

The alarm bells have been sounding for SO long now on the dangers of social media, and the general state of our society.  And it’s time to WAKE UP.  Which is why I am super excited for our expert special today.   Jessica Elefante is a writer and bullshit artist who has spent the last few decades examining what it means to be human in our modern world.  She is the author of Raising Hell, Living Well: Freedom from Influence in a World Where Everyone Wants Something from You. Jessica’s writing works to open people’s eyes on the topics of technology, capitalism, influence, and motherhood and has appeared in The Guardian, Literary Hub, Huffington Post, and more. As the founder of acclaimed Folk Rebellion and a critic of today's culture, Elefante’s award-winning works shine a light on the untenability of our times and have been featured by Vogue, The Atlantic, Inc., Wired, and elsewhere. Currently she’s using her experience in tech and media as a co-chair for Mothers Against Media Addiction (MAMA). She's influenced by the social, cultural, and technological circumstances of her life, but mostly, of her desire to lead a colorful one. Raised in upstate New York, she now lives in Brooklyn with her family. She is no longer bullshitting.
