What happens when a marketing strategist accidentally ghosts her favorite social platform all summer?

In this episode, Allison Hardy gets real about why she took an unintentional break from Instagram Stories, and what that break revealed about her business, her boundaries, and what truly moves the needle.

If you've ever felt like the emotional rollercoaster of social media is too much (you're not alone!), this episode will help you to reassess, reset, and return on your own terms, or not at all. Because yes, you can take a break. And no, it doesn’t mean your business will fall apart.

TAKEAWAYS:
  • Your business can (and probably will) survive if you take a break from a platform. Sometimes, it might even grow.
  • Knowing what actually drives results in your business is way more important than doing what everyone else is doing.
  • Just because a platform works doesn't mean it works for you.
  • Creating strict boundaries around content consumption can drastically improve your mental health.
  • Identifying your "tipping point" (what truly moves your business forward) helps you make smarter, more sustainable decisions.
