👋🏾 Hey friends! I'm taking a lil' break after completing my 30-day YouTube challenge. I learned so much and had a lot of fun doing it. You can catch up on those videos in the Playlists tab, or watch my recap video here: https://youtu.be/oqn309jlyI4?si=weXia...

During the challenge, I confessed my bad social media habits and need for accountability to you all. Out of that conversation came an idea – a 1-hr body doubling session THIS SATURDAY, Feb 28 at 1pm CDMX time (1 hr behind ET).

✨ Analog Girls in a Digital World, Unite! (From the comfort of your homes! 😂) youtube.com/live/EERDcywdYaM?si=M-4wbjgzCAJ0jFPA
Bring your books, your journal, that puzzle you've been working on, or just stare out the window. We're on a mission to heal our attention spans and scroll a little less.

Hope to see you there! 📚 📝 🧶 🧩

Yesterday, I listened to an essay by ‪@iamshaeo‬ on the rise of AI and how our attention and critical thinking have been affected over time. One way to combat the attack on our attention spans is to build space and time for analog pursuits - reading, writing, contemplating, kitting, puzzling, etc.

Join me and a few folks from our growing community for a body-doubling session. Bring your crafts, a book, your journal, whatever feels good for you, as we take one hour to s l o w d o w n and intentionally hone our attention spans.

Save the date: SATURDAY, FEB 28, 1PM MEXICO CITY TIME (1 hr behind EST). Click "Notify Me" below, and YouTube will remind you to join us at the start time.

See you soon!

Got a wake-up call yesterday, in more ways than one. Full story in my latest video. 👀

As a result, I've decided to host live reading/journaling/BEing sessions right there on my YouTube channel. First session: Saturday, Feb 28th, 1pm Mexico City Time: youtube.com/live/EERDcywdYaM?feature=share

Hope to see you there!

I recently made a video talking about how boredom is not benign for me. A couple of days later, another creator posted a video about boredom as well, but from a very different perspective: https://youtu.be/JEnyNRShRYA?si=zR3C5...

I encourage you to watch both, and come to your own conclusions.

As we reckon with the effects of AI and social media on our critical thinking (and attention spans), I'm learning what it means to lean into my own creativity to work WITH my brain, not against it.

I know it's difficult to think right now. All that's happening in the USA is overwhelming. But they are detaining our journalists now. How long before you begin your exit plan?

Hello, my lovelies! It's been almost 2 weeks since this channel debuted, so maybe it's time I introduce myself. I'm Siobhan, and I've lived abroad off and on for the past seven years. From South Korea to the Caribbean to my new home base in Mexico, I've found a sense of freedom, joy, and a MUCH better quality of life outside the USA, and I wanna share tools and tips to help other Black women like me get FREE!

Let's support each other in living out our dreams. If you feel so inclined, introduce yourself! What's your story, and what do you want to see more of on this channel? How can I encourage you in this stage of your journey?

Again, thank you SO MUCH for being here. More to come!

As a Black woman who's living abroad successfully, I have to put you on to ‪@StephaniePerry‬​ and ‪@Roshida‬​ of Exodus Summit - Thee place for Black women planning a sabbatical or move abroad. I received SO MUCH encouragement through their videos and the Exodus Summit event/community. Check them out!
