When We Remember Who We Are, the Game Stops Working
Is instagram the problem or are we?
We talk a lot about the problems with social media.
With the internet. With the algorithm. With the endless scroll.
And yes—there are valid concerns.
Manipulation. Distraction. Dopamine loops. Performance-driven content.
Spiritual branding that sells more than it serves.
But what if the platform isn’t the problem?
What if the game we’re all tired of playing… is one we keep choosing?
Instagram isn’t the enemy.
It’s just a mirror.
The deeper issue lies in what we bring into these spaces.
Our unprocessed fear of being unseen.
Our conditioning around proving our worth.
Our quiet belief that unless we perform—we won’t be chosen.
That’s the game.
And it’s not being played on us.
It’s being played through us.
So… what happens when we stop?
Here’s the good news:
The moment you remember who you are—
the moment you root into your own essence—
you stop playing.
You don’t have to “opt out.”
You simply stop feeding the illusion.
Because when you deeply know who you are:
You’re not manipulating.
You’re not performing.
You’re not chasing resonance—you’re transmitting it.
You start using the tools differently.
You post from embodiment, not emptiness.
You market with clarity, not desperation.
You create with curiosity, not control.
And slowly, subtly, the space begins to shift—
because you’re no longer trying to sell yourself back to yourself.
The Algorithm Isn’t the Villain
We keep saying we’re tired of the algorithm…
but the truth is—we’ve been teaching it what to value.
We’ve been telling it what to feed us.
So the shift doesn’t happen by deleting the app.
It happens by reclaiming our presence inside it.
By choosing to create from essence,
not from fear.
You Might Be the Minority—For Now
Yes, you might feel like the only one doing it differently.
But every time someone shows up online in truth,
in alignment,
in presence—
they send out a frequency.
And someone, somewhere, feels it.
They exhale.
They soften.
They wonder if maybe… they can stop performing too.
That’s How Change Begins
One post.
One interaction.
One quiet truth at a time.
We don’t need to fight the system.
We just need to stop feeding it.
And start creating something else.
Rooted.
Resonant.
Real.
Because the future doesn’t need more content.
It needs more essence.
If this message stirred something in you—if you're ready to stop performing and start creating from a place that actually feels like you—I made something for you.
“Is This Even Me?” is a free reflection journal for soul-led entrepreneurs who are tired of showing up in ways that no longer resonate.
It's not about burning it all down. It’s about gently coming back into alignment—one prompt, one truth, one honest moment at a time.
