116. Digital Detox: Why These Women Decided to Quit Social Media (and How It’s Going!)
Manage episode 364791579 series 2887819
Social media has become a huge part of many people’s lives and often, they don’t even realize the impact it is having on them and those around them. Spending hours scrolling, keeping up with what others are doing, and having information and opinions constantly in front of you can be incredibly draining in many ways.
Today, I am sharing my story of leaving social media along with the stories of nine others who have left as well. We are sharing where we were in our relationships with social media, the positive impacts we have seen since leaving, and what we miss about it. I am hopeful that hearing these wonderful stories about leaving social media will help you if you are considering decreasing your usage or leaving social media altogether.
I know so many people have been interested in hearing from people who used social media for personal reasons or for their business and how it affected them after they left. In this episode, we hear about how leaving social media has helped those in my community be more present, start enjoying their hobbies again, and be in a a better place mentally and emotionally.
In this episode we discuss:
- My personal story of leaving social media
- What it’s like to detox from social media
- How leaving social media reduces the feelings of pressure and anxiety for some
- Why breaking away from social media allows for more focus on family, friends, and hobbies
- What some miss about being on social media
