Today’s topic feels timely. We’re diving deep into how much the way we consume media has changed and how the comparison game has evolved as we’ve transitioned into the relentless digital media world of social media, AI, and 24/7 news.
Our guest brings a really unique perspective on all of this because she spent years inside the media world itself. Nicole Pence Becker is the owner and operator of Pence Media Group and an award-winning former news anchor, which means she has spent years not only understanding media — but living inside it.
Specifically this episode highlights:
- Behavior shifts in media consumption
- Social media content and the power of comparison
- The influence of AI in media
- Building a healthy relationship with social media
