About this listen

In this episode, I chat with my daughter about the Netflix documentary 'The Social Dilemma'. We delve into the effects of social media on our lives, discussing it from both a parents and a young adult's perspectives.

Topics explored in this episode include:

  • Four top takeaways from the documentary about the effect social media can have on us: how we are classified as users, the ubiquity of fake news, dopamine's role in our social media interactions, and the ongoing experiments conducted by social media companies on users.

  • The impact of social media on body image and mental health.

  • What it's like for a young adult to delete social media apps.

  • 10 ideas to help control you social media usage
