About this listen

For a while now, I’ve found myself in a complicated relationship with social media—constantly caught between the urge to unplug and stay connected. In this episode, I’m opening up about the real impact this digital addiction has had on my mind, my creativity, and my overall sense of well-being.

I’ll share the nuanced truth behind popular trends like ice baths and why blindly following them can be more harmful than helpful if you’re a woman. We’ll also explore the systemic issues behind our shrinking attention spans, how social media is rewiring our brains to think in fragments, and why this makes us less empathetic and more polarized.

You’ll hear about the radical decisions some of us are making—like Mark Groves, who’s stepping away from social media entirely—and why I’m seriously considering reducing my own digital presence to focus on deeper, more meaningful content. If you’ve been feeling that pull to disconnect, or if you’re just tired of the constant noise, this episode is a candid look at how we can take back control and start living more intentionally.
