Where your attention goes, your focus grows - but are you really conscious of where you’re spending your most valuable asset?

This episode is going to change the way you use social media & spend time online FOREVER.

If you, like me, are grappling with your relationship with the internet, the next hour is just for you.

I want to help you take back control of where you focus your attention, take back your creativity & learn how to use your most powerful resource to its full potential.

Annie Margaret is a teaching professor in the ATLAS Institute at the University of Colorado and an attention activist.
