Why did Glennon quit social media?
Since November, Abby, Amanda, and I have been planning, dreaming up ways for this community to show up for each other, take care of each other, and continue building community. But you know that several months ago I quit social media, and the effects of that quitting on my nervous system, mind, and heart have been as dramatic as when I quit drinking.
It's been wild, and it's been extremely important for me to experience. Since that quitting, I have felt calmer, braver, and clearer, actually. And in the midst of that, we have come up with some honestly terrifyingly realer and more embodied ways to connect with you and as a community than on social media. I want to keep showing up for each other
And I want to keep building community now more than ever, but I don't want to do it on social media anymore. So here's what I'm telling you today. Soon, I'm going to be inviting you into something special. And the invitation is first going to go to you through my new newsletter. Okay, I have a new newsletter and all of my invitations.
and Abby and Amanda's invitations to new projects, new events, all the beautiful offerings we're planning are going to come to you first on this newsletter. All right, now listen, if history proves to be an indicator, what will happen is the newsletter will go out. Everyone who receives the newsletter will sign up for these offerings and then they will be sold out. That's what happens.
And then everyone gets sad and mad who didn't get the invitation in And since I am in my programs, I know that will not be my responsibility. But still, I don't want it to happen. So please sign up for the newsletter now so you won't be sad or mad later.
And if you have friends that you think want to be part of these offerings in this moment, email them, tag them, whatever you need to do to get the newsletter to them because I won't be promoting it heavily on social media. Now, I can promise you two things about this newsletter. I will be writing to you directly. It will be me. I miss writing to you directly. I'm gonna do it on the newsletter.
It might be the only place that I'm doing that. And two, I will never sell or give or whatever people do with emails, okay? I will keep them safe and sacred. So here's what you do. Go to glennandoyle.com. You will see a signup box in the top middle of the page where you can submit your email address. If you're on Instagram, go to my page, click the link in bio.
You will see sign up for newsletter as the second button. Click the button and submit your email address. That's it. We are going to keep showing up for each other. The invitations will start coming soon on the newsletter. So go register now and I'll see you there.
