A Week Off Social Media: What did I learn?

In this episode, I talk about what really happened when I took a week off social media. At first, it felt uncomfortable — like I was breaking some unspoken rule that I always had to be online, always visible, always “on.” But stepping back forced me to confront that belief — the one that says if I’m not showing up, I’ll somehow fall behind. I share what came up in that space: when I stopped trying to keep up with the constant noise. It reminded me that rest isn’t absence — it’s presence. The world doesn’t fall apart when we step back. In fact, it often gets quieter just long enough for us to hear ourselves again.
