Today I’m joined by Cody Cook-Parrott, a writer, artist, dancer, and teacher who’s here to share how they grew their Instagram account to over 80k followers while navigating big feelings, multiple book deals & many social media breaks in the process.
 

In this conversation, Cody and I meet deep in the both/and of when being ON social media feels bad and being OFF social media feels bad. Tune in to hear about:

• How Cody grew their creative business with the help of IG
• What it’s really like to quit Instagram as a public person
• The relationship between social media & activism
• Online presence VS offline “peace”
• How Cody made more money while off Instagram
• Cody’s shift from Instagram to Substack
