About the Book

Are you tired of watching your life disappear into a scroll? If you've ever felt like your attention is slipping, your energy is scattered, and your days are dictated by timelines you didn't choose, you're not alone. And it's not your fault. It's Not You, It's the Algorithm is a provocative, no-BS exploration of what's really happening to your time, your focus, and your sense of self in the digital age. Written with wit, story, and a punch of irreverence, this book isn't a how-to manual for quitting tech-it's a rally cry for reclaiming your agency while still living in the world. You'll discover: - Why scrolling feels good-until it doesn't - How the subtle design of platforms chips away at your power - What it takes to build a meaningful life when distraction is the default Perfect for smart, curious readers who aren't interested in platitudes or productivity hacks, this book invites you to question what you've accepted-and remember what you're truly capable of. You don't have to delete your accounts to get your life back. But you do have to start paying attention.

About the Author :

She helps individuals think smarter, not just faster, in a world increasingly shaped by algorithms and automation.She is the author of six books and her body of work spans poetry, personal development, and business strategy. Whether writing books, producing music, or designing games, her goal remains the same: to help people reconnect with imagination, intuition, and voice in an age that often rewards speed over substance.MaryLou also works with executive teams and entrepreneurs to develop original thinking and sharpen strategic focus. She helps leaders navigate complexity while staying grounded in what makes their work and their leadership uniquely human.A guide for navigating complexity in the algorithmic age, she teaches people how to think clearly, communicate effectively, and use emerging technologies with discernment. Her workshops and keynotes offer a practical, human-centered approach to modern life - one that prioritizes autonomy, creativity, and real-world relevance.She splits her time between New York and the Pacific Northwest with as many trips to Maine as possible. She believes in the wisdom of well-timed questions and the radical potential of pen on paper.
