Episode 215: What Lando Norris’ Social Media Exit Teaches Us About Quiet Power
When one of the world’s top F1 drivers publicly calls social media a “waste of time and energy”, it’s worth paying attention.
In this solo episode, I break down Lando Norris’ decision to step away from social media - not because of burnout, but as a strategic move to protect his focus and performance.
I explore what makes this such a powerful decision, especially for introverts and high-performers, and how you can apply the same thinking to your own energy habits.
I’m sharing:
- Why stepping back isn’t weakness, but next-level self-awareness
- The hidden cost of being “always on” (especially for introverts)
- A framework to replace low-return habits with high-impact energy boosters
- A 3-step “Lando-inspired” challenge to audit your own social media usage.
This episode is for you if you’re ready to protect your energy like it’s your most valuable asset and learn from one of the world’s highest performers.
