Reflection on Social Media Detox Progress
The podcaster reflects on completing day 8 and entering day 9 of a 10-day social media detox. Despite initial plans for daily episodes, some days remain undocumented due to time constraints and lack of meaningful content. The decision to extend the detox period to 30 days is influenced by family discussions and the pursuit of long-term behavioral changes related to social media usage.
