You know that feeling when you're taking a relaxing bath and you think "this would make such a good reel"? Yeah... that was my breaking point too. 🛁

I sat down to record this episode planning to share all my big insights from 30 days off social media. But here's the thing—I don't have it all figured out yet. And I'm giving myself permission to be okay with that.

If you're tired of your brain working in "social media clips" and putting pressure on yourself to have the perfect plan for everything, this one's for you.

Here's What Hit Me During My Detox:

🧠 Your "inspiration" might actually be self-sabotage in disguise

🔄 You're not learning—you're unlearning

🎯 Discovery mode beats solution mode every single time

What Changes When You Stop Rushing to Figure It Out:

  • You'll stop second-guessing every decision at work because you're not comparing yourself to everyone else's highlight reel.
  • Those Sunday scares? They disappear when you're not mentally rehearsing how to be "more productive" tomorrow.
  • You'll actually be present during family time instead of thinking about what you should be doing or documenting for later.
  • And here's the big one—you'll wake up feeling inspired by YOUR life instead of burdened by everyone else's ideas about what your life should look like.

The Real Talk:

This isn't about becoming anti-social media or having zero goals. It's about giving yourself permission to be in the messy middle without feeling like you're behind or doing it wrong.

Your brain doesn't need more input right now. It needs space to trust what it already knows.
