It’s been coming for a while. It’s not great seeing as how my entire side-hustle relies on it, but I have slowly and surely been finding myself removing my need and want to be so attached to my phone. If you follow me on Instagram, you might notice that I got through spurts of inactivity. A lot of the time my inactivity is a result of being busy with work and home. Sometimes I look at my phone and I feel actual heebie-jeebies. Like I know I’m supposed to be posting on Instagram at least 2 to 3 times a day if I want my follower numbers to increase, yada yada yada. But here’s the thing, I spend a lot of my job trying to educate parents and teachers about how to create boundaries around cell phone and social media use so I feel like a real big hypocrite if I’m on it all the time. The worst is at night. I’m now 35 weeks pregnant and sleeping has become a bit of a chore but I do want to sleep and I don’t want that little blue light inhibiting what melatonin development is actually happening. And yet, I’ve become reliant on it — especially for the time. A simple press of that home button and I get the time but I also open the gateway drug for social media usage. That simple look at the time is like an invitation to just open it and start scrolling and so when the JORD watch company contacted me about their gorgeous, luxury handmade wood watches, I was intrigued. Thanks to my former addiction to my cell phone, I hadn’t worn an actual watch in years. But I love to accessorize and I need something to stop me from hitting that home button of doom on my cell so I accepted their offer for one of their gorgeous watches and I’m so glad I did!

The watch is absolutely stunning and unique. After learning more about JORD watches, I discovered this watch company values sustainability and efficiency. Their watches are built to sustain usage. It’s not just something beautiful to look at but it’s also a watch that can sustain a full-time working mother of 2.5 kids. That’s saying something! Also, for folks with a nickel allergy (like my mama), you can relax! JORD watches are made with 100% natural wood and we refrain from the use of toxic chemicals to either treat or protect the wood and  feature stainless steel (304) clasps.

 

So I’m hoping I’ve whet your appetite for one of these chic watches because you have the opportunity to win by click here a $100 credit towards a watch of your choosing. JORD watches offers free shipping worldwide so my friends who live overseas can participate as well! Hooray! Inclusion!
