Digital Minimalism and Digital Overload | Kelsey Green
Feeling the weight of digital overload? Kelsey Green joins Gratitude Geek to break down digital minimalism and practical technology boundaries that help Gen X women solopreneurs reclaim focus and mental health without ditching tech entirely. Kelsey shares her journey from tech burnout—thinking she had ADHD—to liberation through Cal Newport-inspired principles: Does your tech serve your values, or are you serving it? Learn to scale back social media, use analog tools like paper planners, create physical phone boundaries, and prioritize high-quality hobbies over endless scrolling. Perfect for women rebuilding businesses after cancer, divorce, or burnout who want sustainable growth that fits real life.
