For people always connected, but never truly present.

You’re always online. Always responding. Always there, just never actually here.

Somewhere along the way, we stopped being able to sit still without reaching for a screen. We started treating boredom as a problem to fix instead of a signal worth listening to.

Join Augusto Modigliani, an EMCC-accredited coach, former Big 4 consultant, and tech leader who spent years leading AI-focused research, as he explores why boredom became something to eliminate, what it costs you, and how constant connection wears down the presence your work and relationships depend on.

In this powerful session, you will learn:

✅ Why boredom became something to eliminate – and what it costs you
✅ How constant connection wears down the presence your work and relationships depend on
✅ A clearer read on your own relationship with stillness
✅ Practical practices for reclaiming quiet in a noisy world
✅ A reframe of boredom as useful information rather than a state to escape

What you’ll discover:

This is not a lecture on switching off. It’s an honest hour on being present again, starting with the person who shows up when no one is watching. Augusto combines coaching with a technical understanding of how these platforms are engineered to capture and hold attention, drawing on training from MIT, the University of Toronto’s Temerty Faculty of Medicine, and CAMH (Centre for Addiction and Mental Health).

You’ll leave with a clearer read on your own relationship with stillness, a few practices for reclaiming quiet, and a reframe of boredom as useful information rather than a state to escape.
