Life Without Social Media // The Conversation

Back in 2019, I deleted my Instagram of over 4,000 followers. Taking steps back from social media has completely transformed my life, mental health, and business. I deleted TikTok, Facebook, Snapchat & Instagram this past year. My biggest fear was that I wouldn’t be known or that I wouldn’t be able to make a difference in the world if I wasn’t constantly online.

I sat down to share a few of the things I’ve learned since leaving the social media world.
After our video “A Year Without Social Media” went viral, I realized how many people are miserable and connect with the message of finding contentment again. With the release of the Social Dilemma and other content, I know there is a rising conversation regarding how technology affects our lives. Learning to be present and finding alone time has helped me control the worry and anxiety that I’ve dealt with all of my life.

There’s a clear difference between our followers and our friends and we’ve lost that reality. While we have become more connected as a society, we so often feel alone. I am by no means telling people how to live, but I think it is essential that we pause and take a step that’s best for us and our family.

We do so much for others, but I believe in this new year it’s time that we start prioritizing ourselves. We can’t pour if we’re empty and we surely can’t help people if all of our attention is on a device.
