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

by

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.”
