Real Life PMP

In Part 2 of my conversation with Twanna Gill, we delve deeper into the day-to-day realities of a digital detox. I talk about the practicalities and personal experiences of living through a detox. Join the conversation as I share the highs and lows, the unexpected challenges, and the surprising benefits of a day in the life of a digital detox. 

In this special episode, I'm taking you along on my personal quest for a digital detox. Take a listen as I chat with my project manager and business bestie, Twanna Gill, as I talk about what it means to disconnect from the digital world for a bit during the 2023 holiday season.

In my final episode with Brandi Olson, we discuss putting things in perspective and figuring out the opportunity costs of saying yes to one thing—by saying yes to one thing, you are saying no to something else. Take a listen.
