Summary

Jessica Elefante used to be part of the problem. She was a brand strategist and marketer who created fake problems for us so we would buy things and do things. Because that is what brands and influencers do. They trick us into believing we need things to make our lives better. But now Jessica is a reformed BS artist and she wants to fix the problem. She wants to help us figure out how to stop the nefarious forces of influence from making us unhappy and unhinged with her new book Raising Hell, Living Well. I love this woman and I feel so lucky that I made a new friend by reaching out to her to work on this podcast. You can buy Jessica's book here! https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/711835/raising-hell-living-well-by-jessica-elefante/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
