How to Take a Sabbatical and Prioritize Projects that Resonate with Amelia Hruby

Welcome back to Honing In and to my interview with Amelia Hruby.

Amelia Hruby is a feminist writer, educator, and podcaster with a PhD in philosophy. She is the founder of Softer Sounds podcast studio, and the host of Off the Grid, a podcast about leaving social media. Her new book, Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media is out now.

Here are some of the things Amelia and I discuss:

• Amelia’s 2026 sabbatical as a way to set boundaries with her work and spark creative energy
• How our academic training affects the way we think and make sense of things
• Valuing theoretical and embodied knowledge when it comes to business and marketing 
• Big questions folks are asking about social media, big tech, and AI
• Amelia tells us all about "COME TO CLASS: How to teach & sell online with confidence & care" (see you there!)
