494. I Left Instagram for 30 Days + This is What Happened

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik February 8, 2022 Duration: 1:07:13
When Lindsey first received the download to take a break from Instagram, she pushed the thought aside and went back to scrolling. After some intentional reflection – and a good bit of planning – she decided to listen to the call, logging off of all social media for thirty days.  In this episode, Lindsey opens up about what came through during this period of intentional nothingness. From self-judgment to an unleashed sense of creativity and purpose, she explores how she found meaning and came home to self in the absence of screen. We also talk about: Receiving the download to take a break off social media Setting energetic intentions and realigning priorities Imbuing life with intention  Finding purpose in self How to set yourself up for a meaningful digital detox Sponsors: Zocdoc | Search for local doctors who take your insurance.
