When it comes to how you use social media, that's a whole different story. When it comes to communicating with your friends, staying updated about what's happening in your friends' lives, do you really need to use so much social media per day?
Ever find yourself lost in an endless scroll, only to wonder where the time went? Johan, the host of 'SocialMediaBreakup', tackles this very issue by questioning not just why we use social media, but how we use it. While it's easy to justify our time online by saying we want to stay connected or keep informed, Johan challenges us to think about whether our usage patterns actually serve those purposes—or if they just keep us hooked for hours on end.
In this episode, Johan shines a light on the tactics social media companies use to keep us engaged, from constant notifications to subtle nudges that make it hard to log off. But he doesn’t stop at identifying the problem; he offers practical advice on how to regain control over our digital lives.
By being mindful of our 'why' and setting clear boundaries for our 'how', we can enjoy the benefits of social media without letting it dominate our time and attention. Johan also shares simple yet effective tricks to make our phone usage less compulsive. Imagine logging out once you've achieved your purpose online, rather than getting sucked into another hour of mindless scrolling.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to take back their time and focus from the clutches of social media. Whether you're struggling with phone addiction or just want to use your devices more wisely, Johan's insights offer a roadmap to a healthier relationship with technology. Tune in and discover how you can make social media work for you, not the other way around.
