When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self.

#69 In this livestream conversation recorded on 2.25.2025, Suzanne and 3 other Meta refugees ( Bridget Belden , Mellicia Marx , and Suzanne Rothmeyer ) discuss their decision behind leaving Meta platforms. They share their individual experiences, values, and the impact of social media on their lives and businesses, while also exploring alternative platforms and strategies for connecting with their audiences. You’ll hear their insights on navigating platforms like Substack and Pinterest, the value of creators, and the lessons learned from stepping away from traditional social media. The discussion emphasizes the need for personal agency, courage, and the potential for richer, more meaningful connections in a digital age. Takeaways: Personal responsibility is crucial in navigating social media. Where you invest your time, energy and attention is an individual (and values-driven) decision.

While SEO and personal websites are valuable tools for business visibility. Community and connection can thrive outside traditional social media. Diversifying platforms can help mitigate risks associated with single platforms. Lessons learned include the importance of planning and being proactive.
