Among my feed where I follow a mix of everyday individuals doing amazing things as well as fellow coaches, a theme of leaving social media has been popping up over and over again on my socials.
I have been thinking to drop Instagram myself as it just seems to get harder and harder to be seen as a service provider there which makes it less enjoyable.
I enjoy engaging with my followers on my instagram and even have fun making posts sometimes, but the algorithm makes it more and more difficult to see our follows, friends, and pages we actually want to see. Then add suggestion pages that you probably were better left not seeing as well.
And on top of that, excessive mindless scrolling becomes a bad habit that can affect one’s mental wellbeing. Not to mention some of the toxic interactions you see on there.
I am definitely guilty of mindless scrolling which eats up a lot of time, a lot of time I could have been doing something productive and/or meaningful. Has that ever happened to you? You are not alone I can assure you!
But I can’t dismiss social media all together as I met wonderful women who I have collaborated and keep in touch now, coaches, authors, speakers, you name it.
I won’t erase my instagram completely off the face of the earth, but will be working ways to use social media more intentionally and not let it consume my entire being. I would like to keep a presence on there but use it as one of many parts of my ecosystem as I continue to coach and inspire women when it comes to the non-diet life.
I am ready to do in person events, and am definitely going to continue my podcast and my email list. Also, blogging here has been enjoyable for me as well.
As I continue to decrease my posting on Instagram and Facebook, I invite you into my email newsletter community. I send out emails 1-2 times a month and post coaching tips,inspirations,offers,deals, and special events.
