Eps 036: 5 weeks without instagram and how my life looks different, plus a rallying cry for our 3rd spaces
Update: 2025-08-15
Description
It’s been 5 weeks since I’ve been on IG, and here’s what I’ve learned:
- My brain craves stimulation and will reach for it every opportunity it gets.
- Not every thought that becomes conscious in my mind is mine to own (or share).
- Habits require conscious interruptions if they’re ever going to change.
- Third spaces are our keys to creating social resilience.
- We have to spend time with people that we didn’t choose to necessarily be with if we’re ever going to save society.
In this episode I chat through all the ways I’m witnessing my brain change in real time as I spend more and more time away from this platform. And how in the “de-conditioning”, I’m discovering all the value I’ve been craving – via other outlets of connection, and self-expression.
At the end of this episode I leave you with the question:
- What are you unconsciously choosing (that’s actually not in alignment for you) and that has you too scared to go against the grain?
