The ultimate luxury these days? Being unreachable.
My phone broke while I was on vacation, and I ended up going a week without it. At first, it felt inconvenient… but then, it felt kind of amazing.
It made me realize how much of our attention is pulled into things that aren’t even happening around us. We weren’t made to be this overstimulated or constantly available.
I’ve always been sensitive to “noise,” but stepping back showed me just how high my everyday frequency had been set. It reminded me of the Pressure-Performance Curve—a theory that shows how a certain amount of pressure can boost performance, but too much leads to stress, burnout, and a drop in effectiveness. That’s exactly where I was… unknowingly living in the red zone.
Before the trip, I told myself I wanted to unplug and be more present, and I guess the universe took that seriously 😅
When I finally got a new phone, I found myself wondering if I even wanted to return to social media. Not because I don’t enjoy it, but because I want to be more intentional with where my energy goes, and how I connect.
Lately, I’ve been craving slower, more meaningful spaces. Places where presence matters more than performance.
As I continue to shift how I show up, I’m deeply committed to our .app community, a space that feels supportive, intentional, and centered around motherhood wellness. That’s where you can connect with me more deeply, if and when it feels right.
That little pause gave me a big reminder: it’s okay to step back. To not be constantly reachable. To connect more quietly, more purposefully.
If you’re feeling that too, just know, you’re not alone. 💖
