Hi TikTok!But what happens when our mental health suffers, or we can’t keep up with algorithm changes, or we just plain hate the platforms we’re on?

How can we get off this hamster wheel, or better yet, find alternative solutions to these problems?In this episode, Chelsea talks to Johanna Renoth, a serial entrepreneur and business advisor, who invites entrepreneurs to reflect on their relationship with social media and encourages them to make choices for not only the betterment of their health but for their business.On this week’s episode, Chelsea sits down with Johanna to discuss: How Johanna’s brands Bye Social Media and Log Off Live More developed. The challenges and downsides of fame and celebrity culture. Why is virality so exciting? The impact of social media on our mental health and well-being. What kind of media are you consuming on a daily basis? How to use social media to help your business without burning yourself out. Instant gratification on social media and how distraction affects business owners. The importance of having a marketing strategy.“You're paying for social media with your mental health, with your ability to focus, with your sanity, with the quality of your sleep, with also the hours and energy you invest that you could probably invest…in other sectors of your business. And I'm not here to tell anyone who's listening to this go off socials entirely, but just reflect: to what extent do I really need to be on there?” - Johanna RenothCONNECT WITH JOHANNA: byesocialmedia.com logofflivemore.com johannarenoth.com Johanna’s PodcastCONNECT WITH CHELSEA: Website: www.chelseariffe.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chelseariffe/ 1:1 Coaching Open for 2 more spots until 2023 - apply right here**NEW** Leave a voice note to the pod!
