〰️ description 〰️
I’ve been hooked on social media since 2021. But recently, it’s gotten out of hand. So, on February 4, I quit social media. I went on a 30 Day Detox. I deleted all my apps, deactivated Facebook, and banned the news. 📺

While the challenge was hard initially, by the end, I didn’t want it to stop. So, in this video, I’ll share why I went on a detox, what it was like, and what I learned along the way. 🧠

A Year Without Social Media // Deleting My Instagram

Back in 2019, I deleted my Instagram of over 4,000 followers. I was spending SO much time on the app dealing with comparison and rarely spending any time alone. As a photographer people told me this was my “business card” and deleting it would be a terrible decision. After getting rid of social media, I was able to focus more clearly on my tasks, goals, and vision for my life.

You have your small friend group in life that will help give you advice and guide you, but without realizing it we allow a much bigger group of people to start dictating our decisions. There’s a clear difference between our followers and our friends and we’ve lost that reality. I decided to get away from social media and delete the account, I needed to reset because what I had been doing was not working.

Social media apps are designed to keep our brains over-stimulated and addicted to their product. Our culture is so afraid of silence and alone time, but we have to start embracing these moments in order to find ourselves.

“We’re living for people we’re never going to meet, and neglecting people that are going to be here forever”
