Love You Even More with Jackie Brubaker

Okay, guys, almost all of us are guilty of doom-scrolling social media. People can spend hours mindlessly scrolling Instagram and TikTok completely numbing out. Which at first can feel really good at first! But the hard part comes when it starts to feel really bad and we realize we need to stop. I've recently stopped scrolling and it's opened my eyes to what got me to doom scroll in the first place and how little social media matters once you stop. There really is another world that has no idea who influencers are or cares about your selfie with one of them. Honestly, we don't care. Learn through my experience and get some great tips from the Mayo Clinic and others on how to stop doom-scrolling.

For those of you working (or rather not working right now) in the entertainment   industry you're well aware of what's going on with streaming services, old conglomerates and the thousands of people who have been out of work, losing their houses, moving to other states and radically changing their once steady work lives because of the drastic loss of jobs in the last 2-4 years. California, once the hub of entertainment is now a ghost town with major studios empty and selling off parts of their lots and cast and crew members desperate for work. This might all come as a shock to people outside of the industry. I've heard countless people say, "But, tons of shows and movies are coming out. I thought after the strike was over everything was okay again?" Wrong. It's worse than ever. That's where Producer Patrick comes in... Producer Patrick Caligiuri is an accomplished, award-winning unscripted television producer with over 20 years of experience in developing and delivering compelling content such as: Fight to Survive on Roku and The Quest on Disney+, The Amazing Race, Big Brother, Naked & Afraid, and American Idol. I've been looking to @producer.patrick on Instagram as a guiding light during these dark days, as have thousands of other TV and film members. Patrick has turned to social media to tell the truth about what's actually happening to our industry and the people who have worked in it for decades. He is an active content creator on social media under the handle @producerpatrick, where he shares behind-the-scenes insights and engages with his audience on the latest trends in unscripted content and storytelling.  This is an amazing episode to understand just what the future of the entertainment industry will look like and how drastically things can change within 5-10 years. This is a must-listen-to episode whether you're in entertainment or not.

You might be scratching your head on this one. What is a tea party tactic anyway? Imagine yourself at a tea party. You're dressed nicely, sitting up straight at a table with gloves on having polite conversation with your difficult parent. You would never get too deep in conversation at a tea party, would you? That's exactly what you're going to do with a parent that wants to dive too deep with you. I teach you how to have a civilized conversation with a difficult parent who needs boundaries. This is a simple yet effective tactic to do that!
