Joy talks about discoveries she's made immersed in social media and digital tech for the last 6 years. What makes us unique to the millions out there on social platforms and what drives her to produce Nerds of Joy sharing thoughts, ideas and important voices.  

She explores the brevity of our lives, how we will be remembered and choosing action for good plus the ways social media has been designed to tame and shame us for engagement and that we are the unpaid digital workers whose data, creativity, ideas and very essence of what it is to be human has been stolen, regurgitated and sold back to us.

Who are your mentors, what action could you take today, how might you stretch your thinking and share your curated message with the world?

A good tonic for the end of year or to recalibrate for the new.

Claiming your creative worth takes a sure footedness that can only come from doing parts of it, bit by bit and a knowing that it will work out in the end. It is a modality, a training, a skill cultivated overtime that strengthens with great mentors and tutors.

"Will they be able to sustain life as artists or will their inherent talent and dedication to craft be even acknowledged and remunerated when a machine can spit out similar pictures in a heartbeat. Will their songwriting be ever heard due to the algorithm and ways the platforms are setup; less for the artist."

Never give up on your creativity. I think it takes a special someone to value creativity that can imbue it into all their works. Enjoy this episode and share it with a friend that needs to hear it.

I'm wondering how you are going on your entrepreneurial journey?

How much "raw and organic" information can you handle or do you prefer to seek out mentors in your quest to discover more about entrepreneurship? Do you listen to podcasts recommended by your family or friends, do you have a tribe or are you going it alone?

I've been part of the judging team for this year's Australian Podcast Awards and it has been an honour to filter the entrants. I'm so excited to see who’s out there in our local podcast world and vetting candidates, to ultimately decide who becomes a nominee. Do you support home grown podcasts, stick to the syndicated shows or follow celebrities for the salacious goss?

I think it’s really important as an entrepreneur to get your story out into the world. Your authentic voice matters. Check in to this episode and discover how I can help you to be seen and heard today. Even if you are quiet like a church mouse!

Hey entrepreneurs. The first rule of the game is to surround yourself with the right people that have done the things you want to do. People that can mentor and encourage you on this wild journey of entrepreneurship. 

Every deviation or detour is a possibility for something new. Seize it, be open to the opportunities, or make your own. 

What might you do today to feel that joy of achievement, something hard won that brings you great success and satisfaction, that makes you proud and grateful for the opportunities. Don’t let a new possibility slip away.

Why do we have so much fear showing up and feel compelled to hide behind avatars.

On digital platforms, why do people desire to be a thought leader or speaker but have to use hype reels and highly edited video to deliver concise information, as they build an audience.

How do we make it fun for the listener and include them? Can we show up as ourselves, as we strive to be business leaders, fake or real influencers - eager to hack the algorithm and claw for attention. 

Lay some digital easter eggs - people want to find you.

Joy collaborates with her bot Brian on this episode, to flesh out how to navigate AI and the even more complex developments being added into every aspect of our lives. If the data is right and we spent at least 4 hours on our smartphones everyday - what impact will it have on our creativity, wellbeing, jobs and relationships? 

in this episode we talk about getting out control back with social media and how to help your children online, including the difficulties of social media, the exploitative nature of it and how we can train, educate and support our children to navigate it. What do we need to do as AI is further rolled out and integrated into platforms and services we use everyday? Even Apple wants to apply an invisible layer - no opt outs and by design the tech may not work without it?

How can you stay on top of things and most importantly be more human?

You might think AI or tech does not apply to you but if you find yourself being triggered by simple comments, mad after scrolling, are a vicitim of digital manipulation or realise that you are a slave to your smartphone and the scroll, then I encourage you to listen up, share this episode and digest the content!
