31: The Pause I Didn't Know I Needed | 10 Things I Learned from a Month Long Social Media Break

Messy Motherhood

Show Notes

Welcome to Season 2 of the Messy Motherhood Podcast!

In today's episode, I'm inviting you to come back and join me on the yellow submarine sofa as we chat about the last month. When we ended Season 1 of the show, I said that you would be able to keep up with me via social media since I wasn't releasing weekly podcast episodes, but instead- I unexpectedly logged off social media for a FULL MONTH.

It was such a bittersweet experience and now that I'm finished with this break, I have some serious thoughts and convictions about my personal relationship with social media and my smartphone in general. That being said, in today's episode, we're chatting about it all- what sparked this unexpected break from social media, what I've learned, and some boundaries I have in place moving forward.

If you have ever wondered, thought, or been convicted about your relationship with social media or your smartphone, this episode is for you!

"It doesn't have to be perfect in order for it to be beautiful. It doesn't have to be perfect in order for it to be special. It doesn't have to be perfect in order for it to be memorable. It's not about everything being perfect. It's about everyone being together and making memories. Focus on being present, not perfect." - Stephanie Booe
