Paying less attention to political drama and social media is probably solid advice for anyone alive. I'm already wondering how to balance my kid's inevitable desire to fit in with the fact that sites like Instagram and TikTok are just toxic for anyone's wellbeing.

I definitely feel you on outside hobbies. When I was single and living in Colorado, I enjoyed long hikes (often alone), especially in the snowy winter when it would be so still and quiet. I loved it.

These days my hobby (if you call it that) is travel, but travel with a 3 year old is not exactly low-stress. 🤣
