136 CROWD FAV: Is Social Media Toxic? with Amanda Joyce Weber
About this episode
This week I’m taking some time off and enjoying vacation with the hubby! But I wouldn’t just leave you hanging without a podcast episode—so this week, on the One Simple Shift podcast, I’m re-airing a crowd favorite where I talk about the pros and cons of social media, as well as my thoughts on it now as an entrepreneur.
“Social media is toxic.” I’ve heard it on more than one occasion. And honestly, I used to think so too. That was until I realized exactly how much this single thought was holding me back from marketing my business. Each post I’d see had me swimming in a sea of comparison, wondering how other people were putting out SO much content, living amazing lives, and seemingly doing it all with so much ease. If you’ve found yourself scrolling through Instagram only to feel about ten times worse after, or hanging out in Facebook groups that make you question how it’s so easy for everyone else BUT you, or maybe you've even toyed with the idea that you just need to find a way to run your business off of social media—then today’s episode is a must-listen. I’m diving into exactly how I shifted my relationship with social media so I could market my business, build relationships, and see more money in the bank, PLUS the key belief that made that possible so you can too. It's not a FACT that social media is toxic, and this episode will show you that!
