In this episode, Erin and Nicole tackle something we all need to get better at: ignoring. (Ignoring—strategically, of course.)

Whether your inbox is flooded, your DMs are piling up, or you're just plain overstimulated, this episode is your permission slip to stop responding to everything like it’s a fire drill.

Here’s what you’ll hear:

1.) Why every message doesn’t deserve a reply—and how to tell the difference

2.)  How to stop treating work like a courtroom (you’re not on trial, promise)

3.)  Practical ways to prioritize what actually needs your energy

4.) What ignoring with intention looks like (and why silence is a superpower)

5.)  And the real reason vague DMs are getting ghosted

From Pavlovian pings to text message booty calls (yep), this one’s packed with the hard-earned wisdom of two recovering over-responders. You’ll laugh, nod along, and maybe even mute a few notifications.
