Social Media Detoxes: Spring Cleaning Your Relationship With Technology


Listen Later

I have a friend who could live off a flip phone, just calls and texts, barely uses social media. I was so jealous. Because here I am with 10+ hours of screen time, doom scrolling in bed, clicking onto Instagram and immediately seeing buildings exploding. Sometimes I become too informed and need to dissociate for a bit.

Here's what we're exploring about digital spring cleaning:

  • How millennials remember when you had to GO to the internet (now there's no leaving it... it's everywhere)
  • The pressure to be constantly available online and that little green bubble showing you're active
  • Growing Pains segment: my screen time is wrecking my eyes and I once had symptoms that could've meant detached retina
  • Why going cold turkey with social media detox usually fails (intentionality over elimination)
  • Practical boundaries that actually work: app audits, phone-free zones, doom scroll on couch not bed, digital wellness settings

From understanding how being informed can become overwhelming to recognizing that our work, entertainment, and downtime all require screens now, this episode gets real about digital life. Plus actionable tips you can actually sustain instead of burning out trying to do everything at once.

Subscribe. Share. Remember that you don't have to consume every crisis in real-time to be informed.

Small steps, big healing. Keep growing! ✨
