Guesting - Interviews - Engaging Conversations

We’re living in an era of choice inflation—a time when the number of decisions we’re expected to make has skyrocketed, but the quality of support for those decisions hasn’t kept up. From dating to leadership to personal growth, we’re not just facing more choices—we’re facing harder ones, filtered through tools and platforms designed to shape how we think, what we see, and what we choose.

I’m Emily Pabst, a choicetech consultant and coach and the founder of Remake The Rules. I help people and organizations rethink how they make decisions in a world saturated with information and shaped by what I call choicetech—the systems, tools, and algorithms that influence, automate, or overload our choices.

My work sits at the intersection of cognitive bias, social influence, and digital systems and asks: How do we stay grounded, intentional, and aligned inside that complexity? I love real, thought-provoking conversations about what it means to be human, make good decisions, and resist the pull of noise and default.

If you’re a podcast host, journalist, or creator looking for a guest who brings insight, warmth, and a fresh lens on modern decision-making, let’s connect.

Possible Topics of Conversation

  • Exploring how human decision-making is shaped by tech systems—and what to do when it all gets too much.

    • Choicetech: the tools, platforms, and systems that shape our choices.

    • Hybrid decision-making is the new norm: you + digital information and systems, working together (or not).

    • Choice inflation: more options, more input, more exhaustion.

    • Cognitive overload often isn’t a personal failing, it’s a systems problem.

    • We externalize more decisions than ever. That’s not always bad but it does change everything.

    • Algorithms nudge, sort, and filter, so how do you stay in the driver’s seat?

    • AI and automation are powerful, especially when they remove the parts that matters most.

    • Good decisions aren’t just made, they’re designed.

    • Collaborating with tech requires awareness, not just efficiency.

  • What it means to connect, commit, and choose in a digital-first dating world.

    • Dating apps are choicetech too.

    • More options, more pressure, less connection: the paradox of modern romance.

    • AI is entering the matchmaking space, what does that mean for agency and intimacy?

    • Your “type” might be more algorithmic than authentic.

    • Decision-making frameworks can reduce ghosting, burnout, and endless cycles.

    • From autopilot to intention: shifting your swipe strategy.

    • The future of dating is hybrid: tech-facilitated, human-led.

    • Digital tools should help you run your business, not run your brain into the ground.

    • Automate what you can. Delegate what you should. Focus where it counts.

    • Hybrid systems work best when you’re a strategist, not just a technician.

    • Optimize for ease, not excess. More isn’t always better.

    • Build internal systems that reflect your actual capacity, not hustle culture fantasies.

    • Protect your energy by reducing redundant decisions.

    • Every platform promises productivity. Few deliver alignment.

    • It’s not about control, it’s about collaboration with your tools.

  • Supporting leaders navigate complexity, ambiguity, and the shifting landscape of human-tech decision systems.

    • Your leadership decisions aren’t solo acts, they’re hybrid collaborations, between you, your people, and your tech.

    • Leaders need decision environments, not just dashboards.

    • Information overwhelm leads to reactive leadership. Choose reflection instead.

    • Design your org’s systems for decisions to scale with integrity.

    • Delegation is a leadership skill and so is intentional tech integration.

    • Stop managing input. Start architecting outcomes.
