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
