23: Ever think about quitting social media? Me too -- here are my top reasons
If you're rethinking how you use social media, this episode is for you. I'm in the midst of my own reset, particularly with Instagram. The most recent data shows that on average we're spending more than 3 hours per day on our phones, with 1 in 5 spending more than 4.5 hours.
These do not add up to my best days. For now, I'm taking a long break to decide how to move forward. Some considerations:
Wanting to be more present in daily life
Seeking contentment over aspiration
Valuing deeper, two-way connection
Developing ideas further than a quick share on IG Stories
Rebuilding my ability to focus and reach creative flow
Getting clear on what I really want rather than getting caught up in mimetic desires
Some favorite resources if you're exploring your own relationship with social media:
Digital Minimalism, Cal Newport (book)
Stolen Focus, Johann Hari (book)
How to Break Up with Your Phone, Catherine Price (book)
The Shallows, Nicholas Carr (book)
Wanting, the Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life, Luke Burgis (book)
The Social Dilemma (documentary)
Your Undivided Attention (podcast)
Off the Grid (podcast)

21: Michelle Urban on getting organized as an investment in your space and yourself
If you're anything like me and a new year gives you big energy for simplifying and organizing, you will love this episode. The motivational boost I got from talking to Michelle has held strong -- I've honestly spent time getting organized every single day since we recorded a few weeks ago!
Michelle Urban is a professional home organizer and owner of The Organize House, a full-service organizing company in Portland, Oregon. Michelle helps families achieve order by removing the clutter and creating organizational systems that support daily routines and habits and work with the natural flow of a home.
We talk about the most common obstacles people face when it comes keeping their space tidy and how that affects daily life. I also share some of my own personal challenges with organizing and Michelle talks me through possible solutions.
One of my favorite takeaways: "Everyone is embarrassed of their space and we shouldn't be. We all live very similarly, we just just don't know it."
I'm so excited for you to meet Michelle, I know you'll love this conversation!
