For their first ever live show, Xandra and Grace brought this discussion on Digital Boundaries to Camp GLA, the virtual version of the Harry Potter Alliance’s annual fan activist conference, the Granger Leadership Academy.
With much of our lives and activist work taking place online, it’s more important than ever to set digital boundaries. We must preserve our energy to prioritise taking meaningful action and creating our best work.
'I just realised that I don't have to settle for something good. If I am creative enough, I can find a workaround that is GREAT, or a perfect fit.' - Xandra Robinson-Burns, on her decision to leave social media

About The Art Life
From the publisher's feed
What if art were less about goals and more about living? The Art Life is a podcast and emerging philosophy exploring what it means to be an artist.
Each episode questions what art has to do with life: from nature to notebooks, from happiness to home renovations.
Your host Grace Gordon shares stories of how art weaves meaning into all that we do. 'Being an artist' can be a job, but also an identity, a lifestyle, and a reminder to spend time away from screens.
In conversation, The Art Life redefines ‘art’ as expansive, inclusive, and grounding.
This show is for everyone because everyone can be an artist. Tune in for art chats and interviews. We hope you’re inspired to adopt an art life of your own.
