Make room for more joy, calm, and mental well-being with this digital reset with Emma Gannon. 

As a bestselling author, podcaster, and newsletter creator, Emma Gannon has spent a lot of time in the digital world. With her life spent online only getting bigger and busier, Emma realized she needed to reclaim control over the constant notifications, overflowing inboxes, and overwhelming amount of apps, photos, and music on her digital devices. So she deleted the digital disarray, organized what mattered, and made room for the things she found joy in offline. Now, she wants to help you feel on top of your online and offline life by guiding you through eleven days of digital decluttering. 

With over a decade spent writing about and existing in the virtual world, Emma knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and even shameful about having an online life that negatively impacts your offline one. In this class, Emma will help you take control of your digital devices, set boundaries around your relationship with technology, and simplify your digital world. 

With Emma as your teacher, you’ll:

  • Manage your email inbox with optimized folders and your calendar with color coding 
  • Analyze your social media and your media consumption
  • Delete unwanted apps, photos, and music and organize what you choose to keep
  • Learn to keep better track of your passwords and how you spend your money

Plus, Emma provides a behind-the-scenes look into how she went through the same processes to bring greater mental well-being and a feeling of personal success into her life. 

Whether you’re a business owner who wants to declutter their digital presence or just someone who spends too much time with their digital devices, Emma will walk you through the exact steps to dominating your digital life–instead of vice versa. You’ll leave this class renewed, refreshed, and ready to spend more time offline doing what you love. 

Anybody with a desire to declutter their digital life can take this class. You’ll need your phone and computer as well as a notebook, which you’ll use for reflection, in-class activities, and note taking.
