Bravo! I feel all of this deeply (I delete and reinstall Instagram repeatedly.) My goal here is to live my life (by living seasonally) through action, not intention. I am thrilled to find your account brimming with authenticity. And congratulations on escaping Big Law!

*There is nothing wrong with lots of cookbooks. Permission to keep going. :o)

I delete Instagram and TikTok every Monday! And the further I get away from BigLaw the less I feel I need the distraction on either app, even on the weekend.

Lol I'm glad I'm not the only one who is always deleting and reinstalling Instagram! I will download it every week or two to post things to my author account (mostly because I feel I have to) and then delete it from my phone immediately after. I find I feel better when I'm not looking at it constantly!

This resonates so much. Permission to be -- and discover -- ourselves is what we all need. Thank you!

And cookbooks are essentially pieces of nonfiction -- reading/browsing is an experience in itself!

This is fantastic! Thanks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I’m also practicing turning my phone off and having phone free parts of the day. It is surprisingly hard 🙈🙈🙈
