I love the two questions. I dipped my toe back in social media lasted year only to step away again and I must say, I feel so much better without it. More space to breathe, to explore what matters, what lights me up. And it just feels like such a time sink that it makes sense not to return. So thank you for the questions. They are very helpful. All the best with the program. ❤️
Thanks for this reminder to check where my traffic is coming from! (60% from the blog I have barely touched in years) Just found your substack and am loving it so far :)
Thank you for the Pinterest course link! I have been looking into Pinterest more ever since I did my conscious uncoupling from IG & FB last year😂😝 I started learning similar stuff from a woman named Belinda…I love that so many more of us are going social-media free😊
I don't see Pinterest as a form of social media because it's all about sharing and finding content, not on creating contacts. Pinterest describe themselves as a visual search engine, and if you look at how the platform is organised, there is very little focus on followers--even though people can follow each other. With Instagram, gaining followers, connecting, is the priority I'd say, and sharing content with these followers is secondary. Does that make sense?

You're welcome! I love how you frame leaving IG and FB as conscious uncoupling 😅
How come you do not consider Pinterest a form of social media?
Good question, thank you for asking!
