When You Feel Like Blowing Up the Internet

The 7th most popular Forty Thrive episode could not be more timely. At a time when we're debating more than ever, today's guest has some great tips for surviving life online.  As the leader of the Forty Thrive private FB group, it’s sometimes a delicate dance when moderating a group of strong, passionate women. And I’m not the only one. Elsie Escobar not only co-manages a group of 13,000 women, she’s the community manager at my favorite podcast host, Libsyn. She’s as passionate as I am about helping women find their superpowers and share it with the world. As a leader in the online space, we’re sometimes subjected to some not-so-happy people. In this episode, I share a scenario I witnessed and how Elsie broke allllll the usual rules of the internet with her response to an angry post.
