Such a great piece Maeve! So much to think about. I really struggle with Insta too, and if I didn’t feel I needed it for work I would be on it less. But do I really need it for work? Social media apps really convince us they’re essential but how essential are they? See you in the new year - I have to make it to another Silent Bookclub xx

I really resonate with how you’ve observed the difference between how IG nudges us to interact with people/causes we care about, and how we actually *want* to build relationships. I’ll follow your lead in prioritising offline communication. I’m not strong enough to leave IG totally behind…not yet anyway
