I’ve got a confession—and chances are, you’ll relate.

Lately, I’ve been quietly disappointed in how often I reach for my phone. Not just because of the time it sucks up, but because of what it’s been costing me: real presence, deeper connection, mental clarity, and time with my daughters I won’t get back.

This episode is tender, honest, and hopefully a wake-up call—not to quit social, but to pause long enough to ask:

Am I connecting… or just scrolling?

Who am I learning from?

And what goals am I unconsciously chasing?

What’s my relationship with my phone actually costing me?

I’m sharing the six reasons I’ve decided to take a full year off Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook—including the moment that broke my heart (and made my choice feel really clear).

Whether you’re a mom, a dreamer, a woman of faith, or just someone craving less noise and more depth—this one’s for you.
