Marketing feels weird right now. In this episode, I unpack why everything suddenly feels off aka the drop in engagement, the rise of AI-generated content, the overload of information, and what I'm calling the "attention rebellion".

I share what's really happening behind the scenes with user behavior, why originality matters more than ever, and how brands can stand out by leaning deeper into context, discernment, and human-centered marketing.

If you've felt unsettled by how fast everything is changing, you're not imagining it and this episode will help you understand what's shifting and why.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about:

Why engagement is dropping everywhere
What the "attention rebellion" means for your content
Why context matters more than information
How tool fatigue is reshaping marketing
Why human-centered brands will stand out in 2026

…And More!
