"i feel like it's one of the most important things ever right now and probably always has been but i don't know one person who knows how to rest," she says. "We're so used to commercialized pictures of rest which are you know about having the right product in the most beautiful bathtub with the scented candle that probably cost 100 quid" 'It sort of drives me a little bit crazy honestly anyway,' adds her.
Emma Gannon is a true digital native, a storyteller who finds creative inspiration in online communities, and who has sought a more thoughtful way to be in the digital spaces that so dominate our lives.
In this episode, Katherine and Emma discuss what it means to be a digital citizen - the pleasures and the agonies of coming together in the ether, and the ways it can both warp and welcome connection. Emma’s is a nuanced take, emphasising our own agency within social media spaces, and inviting us to be thoughtful and disciplined, rather than reactive and addicted.
