Any others choose to stay off social media even if it's considered vital for their career- entrepreneurs, artists, actors, etc. I'm curious what you do when the pressure to be visible is high? Are there other ways to make it happen?

I left social media 2 years ago and have never felt better on a personal level. But I have to admit that every time someone in my industry asks for my Instagram and I don't have one, I feel a bit badly about it. And ruminate on whether or not I'm sabotaging myself.

We live in a culture where visibility is idolized. But I love being invisible and retreating into the mystery as an artist. I love emerging on my terms. I love that people come in and out of my life rather than collecting them.
