Listen Later

It's easy to blame technology for our distractions, but the story is more nuanced. Join us for a special interview with Nir Eyal, best-selling author and tech-habits expert, as we delve into the psychology of habit-forming technologies. Discover insights from his best-selling books, Hooked and Indistractable, which have sold over 1 million copies worldwide. Nir challenges the idea that technology is the villain and offers strategies to reclaim focus. He also addresses Johann Hari’s controversial portrayal of him in Stolen Focus, arguing against the notion that we are mere victims of tech. This interview is essential for anyone aiming to enhance their concentration and engage with technology in a mature, considered way. It builds on the themes from Season 1 of The Spacemakers, deepening our understanding of how to live intentionally in a digital world.
