Melissa has officially become…an influencer.

Except instead of influencing you to buy something, she's influencing you to do something wildly radical in 2026: delete social media from your phone.

In this late-night minisode, Melissa shares the unexpected challenge she took on for the new year—and why it's been one of the best decisions she's made for her mental health, focus, and overall life.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The Japanese concept of "misogi" (doing something so hard you have less than a 50% chance of finishing)

• Why Melissa deleted Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and more on January 1

• Revenge bedtime procrastination (aka scrolling until 12:30 AM because you "deserve it")

• How social media quietly fuels pressure, comparison, and anxiety

• Why "continued use despite adverse consequences" is a wake-up call

• The surprising truth: she doesn't miss it at all

• What she's gained instead: better sleep, more reading, more peace, more time

• How she still stays connected (Facebook groups + watching TikToks her kids send)

• Why organizers do NOT need social media to grow a successful business

• How she's accidentally converted other people into quitting too

If you've been feeling overstimulated, scattered, burned out, or addicted to the scroll… this episode is your sign.
