657: What Dating Apps + Social Media Are Doing To Our Brains with Shannon Algeo
We are all in a very toxic relationship right now. And nobody is talking about it.
Could our phones be changing the chemistry of our brains, how we date, how we relate and how we connect? And are most of us too addicted to even notice? In this episode I sit down with my longtime friend Shannon Algeo, therapist and author of The Power In Your Hands, to have the conversation we all desperately need to be having.
From dating apps and attachment styles to social media, AI and why an entire generation is having less sex than any before them, this is one of the most important episodes I have recorded in a long time.
In this episode we explore:
📱 How smartphones qualify as a behavioral addiction for almost everyone who owns one
💔 Why dating apps create the same intermittent reward pattern as an abusive relationship
🧠 What social media is actually doing to our attention spans memory and empathy
👀 Why Gen Z is having the least sex of any generation and how phones are connected
🎭 The e-persona and why so many people on dating apps never actually want to meet
🌿 What 40 hours completely offline does to your brain and how to actually do it
📵 Practical tools to reclaim your attention and break free from phone addiction
💞 Why deeper relationships are the meaning of life and how our phones are blocking us
This is a perfect episode to meet up with your friends, tune into the episode and put your phones down together.
