Today, we’re talking with Patricia about her most recent book, Will the Future Like You?: Reflections on the Age of Hyper-reinvention.

It’s a much-needed work that explores how we consciously and unconsciously get caught in technology’s mirror, and how that reflection shapes everything from our sense of self to the external pressures of society. This conversation invites us to pause, and question who we are becoming? Which will help us consider what it really means to remain human in a digitally driven future.”
