✊ Make the Movement Irresistible — Quiet Quitting Social Media with Edgar Fabián Frías

Edgar Fabián Frías is an artist, therapist, educator, curator, witch and so much more.

Today, they join me on the podcast to talk about the decision they made to quiet quit Instagram at the start of 2025.

Together, we explore:
  • The works of art that changed our lives & nonlinear psychic collaboration
  • Being impersonated on Instagram & how that can impact your business
  • What happens when Meta starts suspending queer artists
  • How Edgar blended career paths & built new channels away from social media (including their podcast Your Art is a Spell!)
  • Feeling safer after stepping back from so much public sharing
  • Why the era of social media is dying
 
Tune in for an inspiring conversation in the spirit of Toni Cade Bambara, who teaches us that — “As a culture worker who belongs to an oppressed people, my job is to make revolution irresistible.”
