About this episode
Lindsay Hyatt shares her experiences and insights from a week-long social media detox, exploring the challenges and revelations that arise from stepping away from online platforms.
What actually happens after you decide to step away from social media? In this episode of Reprogramming , Lindsay shares a real-time update from her ongoing social media detox—and the unexpected layers that have revealed themselves in just one week offline.
