Eps 036: 5 weeks without instagram and how my life looks different, plus a rallying cry for our 3rd spaces

from The Designed Life · host Hollis M. M.

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?Mentioned:Leaving IG Substack pt. 1Leaving IG Substack pt. 2Constellations SeptemberConstellations August (free)My chat with Jess on her podcast about making choices aligned with your valuesConnect with me:⁠ASTROLOGY READINGS⁠⁠LIFE COACHING⁠⁠SUBSTACK⁠⁠⁠PINTEREST⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠THREADS⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠
