Social media is a major reason why so many of us have phone addictions, and it's weirdly societally acceptable!

I took my phone addiction into (out of?) my own hands by deleting my apps for the month of March. Now April is over, I've spent 30 days with a boring phone and 30 days with social media back on my phone. Let's talk about what differences I noticed?

Did I save money? Did I prioritize my time better? did I change my life? Listen and find out.

Ep 35 is brought to you by me.

Are you feeling stuck in old routines or constantly measuring yourself against someone else’s highlight reel? In this episode of She’s Doing Alright, we’re getting real about what it means to outgrow the habits that no longer serve us—and how to stop falling into the exhausting cycle of comparison.

As women, especially in seasons of transition like motherhood, career shifts, or personal growth, it’s easy to cling to outdated habits or standards that once felt right but now feel heavy.

We’ll talk about:

• How to recognize habits that are no longer aligned with who you're becoming

• The subtle (and sneaky) ways comparison shows up in daily life

• Entitlement to things that don't exactly serve us.

If you’ve ever felt like you should be doing more, or like everyone else has it figured out but you—this one’s for you. You’re not behind. You’re just becoming.

Who were you in 2019? Or whatever year you feel like was your "last good year." I feel like we all lost some important years of self-discovery during the pandemic, and are just now starting to reflect on who we are, were, and are going to be.

This whole time I thought I was managing my low expectations of motherhood, when in reality I was just accepting the fact that I wasn't meeting my expectations.

Motherhood comes with so many expectations, and honestly ,

thats just life in general. So even if you aren't a mom, this will still resonate at some level I'm sure. Accepting that we are coming up short and moving the bar down is HARD and it feels all the negative feelings. But we and our kids deserve the version of us that feels good and accomplished, and that means we need to sometimes lower our expectations.

You may have already made this connection and If so, I'm so happy. it took me nearly a year of therapy and talking about "lowering expectations" to realize that I wasn't doing what I thought I was doing!

I hope this is a helpful episode in some way, and I'm thankful you're here.

I got rid of social media for a month and we are barely 6 and a half days into it. It's not hard, but I miss my friends and community! A big win though is that I have time to record podcasts again, which I did about four times! I am sending this one out into the universe though, as is. Please tell me if it's boring. I would personally recommend a 2x listening speed, 1.5 minimum.

thanks for being here!
