In this episode, Marlee shares her thoughts about social media, being intentional with her attention, and a current experiment with a four month Instagram holiday. We discuss Marlee’s changing relationship with social media and what she’s doing with her days now that Instagram is not a part of them. Our conversation showcases how Marlee loves to bring joy and clarity to others by being herself. I so enjoyed speaking with her about the nuances of being an online entrepreneur who is reevaluating her digital spaces.
Tune in to hear us explore…
- How Marlee prepared for her social media holiday as an online entrepreneur
- Understanding your own needs and gaining clarity before negotiating for your needs in relationship
