I don't know if it's just the time of year or the time of life. Last week I had so many conversations about how women have been burned out by social media. How it makes them feel anxious, stresses their nervous system, and how they hate it. As someone who has worked in the industry for 15 years, I understand all the information that is thrown at us all the time. The rule used to be that you needed seven touch points to make a conversion; now it's something ridiculous like 77. People are reacting physically in a negative way when thinking about being visible and showing themselves on camera. It makes me very sad because social media was not meant for this. Social media was meant to be a community space, similar to Skool, where we could share on Instagram our beautiful photographs, our food, our trips, our love for anything, and people would rally around that. It was the same with Facebook groups, and if you go back, even MySpace was a place to share with people. So it makes me quite sad that something meant to bring people together has been corrupted. AND I just want you to remember that you have the power. Social media is only a tool, and you can go as fast or as slow as you want. You don't have to listen to everybody, especially to people who don't live the same life you do. Remember, social media fits into your life. You allow it into yours. That's your power. And if you've manage to read all that, here's a little thank you GIF.
