What kind of Freedom Could 2, 7, 14 or 30 Days Without Social Media Give You?
Global studies now show that people average 2 hours and 27 minutes of social media use daily.
Think about this… What could you do with 5 extra hours? What about 17.5, 35 or 75 hours? One month off social media has the potential to give you an extra 6 waking days of your life. With this time you could:
Work on a personal project or business
Start a new routine, fitness, self care, etc.
Go on an adventure
Spend meaningful time with people you love
Do a course, read a book or study
If you find yourself scrolling on Social Media for longer than you want, comparing your life to other people’s highlight reels or stressing about what to post, join your sisters for a Social Media Detox Challenge in 2023!
