Do you feel more distracted than ever, despite being constantly connected? Join the Austin Forum for an essential online conversation about Cal Newport's influential book, "Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World." We'll explore Newport's philosophy of using technology with intention to support your goals, rather than letting it use you.

This timely discussion will be moderated by Hugh Forrest, the visionary behind SXSW and founder of Gather & Grow. With decades of experience at the intersection of technology and human connection, Hugh will guide our conversation on practical strategies to:

  • Declutter your digital life and curate your tools.
  • Rediscover the value of solitude and high-quality leisure.
  • Cultivate deeper, more meaningful connections, both online and off.

Whether you're feeling digital burnout or are simply curious about living a more focused life, this conversation is for you. Come ready to share your own experiences and learn how to build a healthier relationship with technology.
