This week, we’re talking about de-influencing.
Not the trendy version where someone says “don’t buy that, buy this instead.” The real version.
Why influencer culture thrives on exhaustion.
Why everything is labeled “the best thing ever.”
Why so many viral products fall apart in days.
And how consumer culture in America feeds on your emotions, your stress, and your need for escape.
We break down:
• The business model behind influencer marketing
• How “de-influencers” still monetize your attention
• Why half the products you see online solve nothing
• The psychology of impulse buying
• How brands sell feelings, not function
If you’ve ever bought something because it promised a better life, this episode is for you.
Listen now and rethink what you’re being sold.
