Manage episode 505514509 series 3317260
This summer, Cody Cook-Parrott deleted their Instagram account. In doing so, they “lost” 80,000 followers and gained so. much. more.
In this conversation, we dig into why Cody decided to delete IG, how their creative attention has shifted since, and what it really looks like to build a business (and publish a book) off the grid.

- Why Cody deleted their account instead of deactivating
- What it means to archive your work online
- The realities of giving up social capital
- Sacred witnessing and ways to cultivate the feeling of being seen
- How Cody is approaching their next book launch without social media
- Why we love self-publishing & the fate of Amelia’s first zine project
