Energy Talks with Vanessa & Alyssa

Social Media Feelings & Reuniting with Your Inner Child

Vanessa & Alyssa Episode 10

In this episode of Energy Talks with Vanessa & Alyssa, we’re getting real about the energy of social media, how it can uplift, distract, isolate, or inspire. Alyssa shares how taking a break from Instagram after her pregnancy loss became a pivotal step in her healing journey, leading to unexpected clarity and connection. We reflect on the addictive nature of digital life, how to set healthier boundaries, and why presence is a gift we can give ourselves. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, addicted, or unseen in the scroll, this conversation is your reminder that the most important connection is the one with yourself.

Tune in for more on:

  • Why Alyssa went “dark” on social media and how it opened the door to deeper healing.
  • How the pressure to stay “connected” can actually pull us away from real presence and authenticity.
  • The surprising gifts of solitude, boundaries, and disconnecting from the scroll.
  • Why mindfulness around what we consume, online and off, matters for our energy and well-being.
  • The emotional aftermath of pregnancy loss and how authentic online sharing created unexpected community and healing.
  • How to teach our kids (and remind ourselves) to stay connected to their own energy in a hyper-connected world.
  • A candid look at perfectionism, guilt, and how posting authentically can still be powerful without draining your spirit.
