FRIDAY PHILOSOPHIES: Bike Shedding Effect
Join our host, Michelle Pellizzon, in another episode of Friday Philosophies as she dives into the "bike shedding effect," where we often get caught up in trivial details instead of focusing on what really matters. Michelle will share practical tips to help you stay on track and prioritize your core goals. Tune in to discover how to streamline your priorities and boost your productivity!KEY TAKEAWAYS: The "bike shedding effect" is the tendency for people to disproportionately focus on minor details while neglecting more important and complex issues. The bike shedding effect can be driven by factors such as high cognitive load, procrastination, perfectionism, and information overload. Overcoming the bike shedding effect can be achieved by prioritizing tasks based on personal values and goals, systematizing to reduce cognitive load, and delegating trivial tasks. For creatives and entrepreneurs, it's important to trust their intuition and vision, even if others don't understand, to avoid getting caught up in minor details. Maintaining productivity and avoiding burnout in creative projects can be achieved by setting clear goals and balancing attention to details with action on the bigger picture.📚 Resources and Links: Hear all of this and more every Friday morning by subscribing here Sign up here for your weekly wink from the Universe and receive curated links to tickle your brain and coax out your intuition! 📩 Connect with host Michelle Pellizzon-Lipsitz and Team Holisticism Subscribe and support the podcast on Spotify here.

State of the Social Media Union with KP
Join our host Michelle Pellizzon and Holisticism's social media manager, KP, as they dive into the current state of platforms like Instagram, exploring how it affects small businesses and creatives. They discuss the frustrations of dealing with algorithms, the nature of viral content, smart marketing strategies, and why staying true to yourself online is so important.KEY TAKEAWAYS: Social media algorithms are designed to maximize user engagement for ad revenue, rather than to support creators or small businesses.

Promoting one's authentic self and interests, rather than merely a brand, is seeing more success on platforms like Threads.
