A few highlights from this episode:
- It might be time to evaluate what your intentions and expectations are when it comes to social media.
- Turn off notifications for Instagram! That way you are choosing to go into the app versus the app telling you.
- Move your phone into a different room. It’s a simple tip but can help reduce your phone usage!
- Remember that social media is a highlight of people’s lives.
- Make sure your feed reflects your brand.
