E21: Access Points: Evaluating the Input Into Your Life

Information is coming at us from all sides. Consuming information these days can be compared to trying to drink water from a fire hydrant.

Access points into our lives are everywhere. To what extent do these "access points" affect how we conduct ourselves on a daily basis? Do we ever slow down to evaluate our intake? Asking ourselves why we choose to consume the content we do, and evaluate what value it brings?

We mindlessly scroll through social media, but how many apps a day? We listen to our favorite podcasts, but how many are there? With the digital revolution and microwave-culture calling the shots– our ability to regulate these points of entry is getting harder by the minute.

In Episode 21 of the New Rules Podcast, we examine this concept of access points through relationships, work, media, and beyond.

We'll examine:

• We have so many access points, we can't 'keep the doors shut'

• The growing misconception of 'lack of resilience' within Gen Z and how they might not be as "coddled" as what is believed

• Access has grown faster than we could possibly adapt to in a healthy way

• Relationships are important access points that are often overlooked as such, that can shape us, both good and bad.

• Having too many access points can be extremely overwhelming - and without proper boundaries, will lead to loneliness, despair, and crisis.

Join Adrian and Bri as they examine the proper way to evaluate and cope with access points in work, life, and beyond.
