I hate doing social media.

It’s taken me a very, very long time to be honest with myself about that. The thing is, I like learning about it. I find algorithms interesting, and I’ve invested way too much time in trying to game the system and develop a following. But it’s always miserable.

So, I’ve decided to finally give it up. Social media does not serve me. But, I do still want to connect with others. That’s why I’ve got this blog, and why I’ve started a newsletter and run a Patreon. It has been so freeing to focus on these things that I actually enjoy doing instead of trying to make myself do Instagram or Twitter or (God forbid) Threads. The reach is smaller, of course, but I’m having fun! And hopefully, I’ll find the folks who really do want to go on this journey with me.

What are you forcing yourself to do because you think you have to? What could life look like if you let that go?

Much love and gratitude.
