Today's episode is a real-time update on my own social media detox and how what started as a pause revealed a deeper need.
I also lay out a practical framework for you to use in identifying the distractions, numbing, or unhealthy coping tactics in your life and how to replace them with the life-giving, soul-nourishing things you actually crave.
We cover:
1. What my own detox revealed about my use of social media
2. A roadmap for how to pinpoint areas in your own life that might need a detox
3. Healthy ways to escape, soothe, or find comfort
4. What is the difference between a fast and a detox? 
5. Can I find a healthy balance with certain "distractions"?
