Have you ever looked up from your phone and realized you missed a moment- a question, a laugh, eye contact- simply because a scroll pulled you away? It’s a quiet heartbreak so many moms carry. We don’t want to be distracted… yet the pull of social media so often wins, leaving us feeling guilty, scattered, and wondering if we’re modeling the attention and presence we hope our kids will give their families.

That’s why today’s conversation with Mari Wuellner is so powerful. Mari is a mom and business owner who took a bold three-month sabbatical from all social media- no posting, no stories, no scrolling. What she discovered might just challenge everything you believe about presence, purpose, and how we connect in a screen-saturated world.Mari shares:

• ​The surprising moments she would’ve completely missed if she’d been focused on documenting them.
• ​How her kids responded when she was finally fully with them (not half in a scroll).
• ​Why her creativity, clarity, and even her business grew when she logged off.
• ​What she’d tell any mom craving more life and less digital noise.
• ​Practical wisdom for taking your own social media break — and how (or if) to return.

Here’s the Power in Today’s Episode:

• ​A real-life look at what a social media sabbatical can unlock.
• ​A challenge to rethink how we model presence for our daughters.
• ​Permission to protect your peace, your mind, and your motherhood — without fear of "missing out".

Because sometimes the most powerful thing a mother can do… is look up.
