“Original, exceptional, timely, inspiring, ‘real world practical’, and thoroughly ‘reader friendly’...” ~Midwest Book Review
Near the end of 2019, I started a personal experiment with social media, which sparked my curiosity about its effects on mental health and overall life satisfaction. I spent the next several years researching, self-experimenting with, and observing topics like screen-life balance, digital minimalism, tech addiction, and intentional living. I shared what I was learning on a blog, then shifted to organizing my work into a book. I discovered a gap in the digital minimalism books on the market. They felt too extreme or too theoretical. I wanted to create something that felt lived-in and achievable.
The book opens with my personal struggles to move from digital overwhelm to living with intentionality. Through a series of “unfollows” readers are guided through 22 chapters, each focused on a specific digital-age challenge. Each chapter weaves in my own anecdotes, practical experiments, and “Protect Simplicity” action steps (140 in total that can be implemented right away).
