Happy Friday, everyone! 🥰 Did you have a good week? 👍 I hope so! I’ve been going insane this week and took a break from my computer to meet with SM friend, Tom Robinson @tomcascades, and long-time friends / 📸 pro photographers, Fred & Paul Milkie. Strangely, the three of them already knew each from childhood! 📝📐🖇️ It was my first time to meet Tom IRL, but it felt like a gathering of old friends. 🤗 Because I'm editing my book, 📕 for the past two weeks I stopped using social media except Instagram 🤳 and Clubhouse 👋. Tom and @fergdevins have been co-hosting a room with me Mondays on Clubhouse (5PM PDT) 🕔 and I’m committed to hosting two more events. So, if you can, please join us in the Instagram Hubhouse. 🏠 I didn’t realize how great it would feel to stop tweeting. 🐦 At first feelings of FOMO 😲 crept in, but it quickly changed to joy 😁and relief. 😅This is the longest break I’ve taken from Twitter since 2008, and so far, I’ve reclaimed 16 hours of valuable time to work on my book. ⌚ Do you use any apps besides Instagram? 🖼️ If yes, which ones? And have you ever stopped using social or done a digital detox? 🚫 I have a dear friend, @chinneolhungdim, who periodically takes a break from Twitter and IG, 🙋♀️ usually because she has a lot going on. Instagram can feel like a grind at times, looking, 👀liking, ♥️ commenting, 💬 and responding ⌨️ to comments. Did you know the average Instagram users spends an hour a day here? ⏳ What did you do in your free time before social media came along? 🤔 Have a great weekend! 😻 . . .
