So, what’s JOMO all about?

JOMO is the joy of missing out on the right things—life-taking things like toxic hustle, comparison, and digital drain. The Joy of Missing Out is a social movement, a philosophy, a set of values, a mission statement, and a lifelong pursuit.

At JOMO, our focus is less on setting limits on technology than creating positive conditions for other - more life-giving engagements - to thrive and flourish. Our mission is to build more joyful lives through intentional digital consumption.
