Episode 20: The Art of Staying Human

The noise is everywhere — headlines, outrage, algorithms feeding the chaos.

But underneath all that, there’s still something worth protecting.

In Episode 20 of Still Here, Still Trying, Mike Baker shares The Art of Staying Human — a grounded, honest guide to holding on to empathy, truth, and decency in a world built for division.

He lays out a five-part playbook for staying human when the algorithms pull us apart:

1️⃣ Remember what’s real

2️⃣ Curate what shapes you

3️⃣ Practice slow truth

4️⃣ Create something that can’t be scrolled

5️⃣ Stay kind — especially when it’s unpopular

This one’s part reflection, part roadmap, and all heart — a reminder that connection still beats clicks, and that even in the noise, we can choose to be human first.
