Ep. 1: Why We Left Social Media

🎉 It’s here! The first episode of Writing Off Social! 🎉
In this episode, we (Sandy and Mary K.) share why we chose to leave social media. Our stories are probably not much different than yours. We started out doing our best to grow our audiences on social media (and even had some success!), but it wasn’t long before we began to experience the frustration and fallout of the changing algorithm and time-sucking nature of the apps. We lift the veil and give you an inside look at our struggle to leave social media, as well as the series of events that eventually led to each of us choosing to leave the platforms for good.
Whether you listen to us and nod your head, because you’re so ready to ditch social media you could scream, or you listen in disbelief because there’s no way you could imagine leaving: we get it. We’ve been there.
We know what a major decision this is and how impossible it may feel. But it’s not. There are so many ways to build your audience! We don’t have to submit ourselves to a platform that leaves us feeling anxious, depressed and glitchy.
We are on the road to discovering audience growing pathways that feel authentic, fun, and productive. We can’t wait to share those with you; so, stick around because the best is yet to come!
