What’s Life Without Social Media?

In this episode, I share some reflections on what life has been like since leaving Instagram. I talk about the impact of social media on personal sharing and the trend of oversharing in today's digital age. I discuss more about my decision to step back from social platforms to cultivate authenticity and connection. I also explore the effects of constant online sharing on presence and relationships as well as the importance of setting boundaries, mindful consumption, and self-awareness in navigating the digital world. Listen in to dive deeper with me as I live into the questions around what both life and business look like outside of social media.
