Today's guest, Patrick McGinnis is the FOUNDER of the term "FOMO". This episode dives in on what is under the fear of missing out and what to do about it.
If you're overwhelmed by all of the many decisions, opportunities, places to go and people to see and frequently find yourself feeling the "fear of missing out", this episode is for you!
She Built This members share that they feel FOMO around: home ownership, travel, large scale events, and entrepreneurship itself!
Patrick is going to share with us how to overcome some of these feelings and to make FOMO a productive force in our lives rather than letting it hold us back.
Our conversation covers:
- How Patrick started as an angel investor and venture capitalist
- Where the term "Fear Of Missing Out" (FOMO) came from and what Patrick’s founder definition is
- Where FOMO shows up for us today and why it’s more prevalent than ever
- How FOMO can be productive and move us forward towards what matters
- Why JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) isn’t always the answer and what to focus on instead
- What FOBO (Fear of Better Options) is and why it’s never a good thing
- How to make better decisions
- And MORE!
