Omg this is perfect timing as I’ve been slowly fading away from instagram for months and i have a Substack post about it in the works to release this weekend!
I relate to all of this so much! And additionally a big motivation for me to quit was the example i want to be to my daughter, who I’m sure will have her own run in with social media when she’s older.
I love that you’ve been doing the slow fade—I can’t wait to read more about it. And yes! High five to setting a better example for your child! A win-win for sure.
Love this so much- I need to download that app that makes it harder to just mindlessly click to Instagram. Sometimes I say ALOUD to myself "why am I doing this??" as I scroll. Hideous waste of time but yes, as you mentioned, sometimes feels necessary evil???
Additionally are those bowls from Anthro or somewhere else? I have two from Anthro and I love them (I found them shopping IN STORE- something else I really try to do vs online endless clicking and convincing myself I need more THINGS).
Yes! They are from Anthro. I can give you a link if you want, but won’t if it would add to your “more things” list!! They are great bowls. Simple. Elegant. Surprisingly sturdy, though I do need to get some toddler friendly bowls soon…
I don’t have TikTok, gave up Instagram 3 years ago maybe, and only go onto Facebook to check Sonya’s preschool pictures. It’s so freeing. You go girl.
You’re amazing. And you’re right: it’s so freeing!! Just a weight lifted.
