how deleting social media changed my life

i deleted social media 3 years ago and it was one of the best decisions of my life! getting control of my relationship with social media was an absolute journey but WOW am i glad i made the change – life is more peaceful, intentional, and filled with deep/meaningful connections rather than surface-level/fake friends and stimulation. if you’re exploring this decision for yourself… come on in, the water’s fine 🙂 chapters below

An Honest Conversation about Why I Quit Social Media (a life with no Instagram or TikTok)

Social media is wonderful for so many communities and it’s helped platform some great businesses and people. Heck, if social media didn’t exist, you probably wouldn’t even know me! But, I wanted to have an open, honest conversation about why I refrain from some of the larger platforms, how it has altered my life and what it looks like to say, “I don’t use social media.”
Let me know your thoughts!

I deleted Social Media and here’s what I learned

Hey! So 4 months ago I deleted Social Media and as someone who gained a platform on tiktok, this was one of the hardest things I had to do.

I have re-downloaded instagram for my gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/@UCwH6kG5gWM_nmv5pgiaa18A

However I am still unsure on when or if I will ever redownload tiktok.
In this video I share my own experience with social media and the reasons why deleting it might be beneficial to you.

I have been working on starting up my etsy shop to sell cute necklaces and jewelry! You can find that here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/etchedcreatez
