Hi, I'm Jodi and I have an addiction.
Phone addiction.
I have realised this and I hate it. So I’m doing a month with no social media apps (I think more of us should!)
I’ve realised how much social media has been rewiring my brain.
The constant scrolling, the notifications, the dopamine hits — it’s addictive as hell!
It scatters my attention, lowers focus, and leaves me feeling empty and raging at myself after spending hours consuming so much “content.”
And while we think we’re using the apps, they’re using us!!
Tracking, profiling, shaping behaviour and brainwashing — all in the name of “connection" yet I've never felt so disconnected.
So for the next month, I’m deleting every social media app from my phone. I want to get my time, evergy, thoughts and privacy back and not always reach for a screen to disassociate.
It’s not just a detox — it’s a small act of rebellion.
Because the more we depend on phones that track our every move, the easier it becomes to accept things like digital ID as “normal.” But it’s not normal to swap privacy for convenience.
If you’ve been feeling overstimulated, distracted, maybe try a month off too.
If you need me, just message or call.
See you in December. 🫶
