Just checking in…Q&A while we prep season 5!

Turns out, we still occasionally spiral about social media, so yet again this year we made an annual social media episode. In it we discuss an our individual relationship to it, how that’s evolved, how we use it socially, for work, for connection, for comparing and disappearing, and how we're managing our anxiety that comes up around it. We talk about both using it as a consumer and from the creating, contributing, and sharing perspective so regardless of how you use it we hope this conversation makes you feel less alone, or is interesting, or entertaining. Would love to how social media impacts your anxiety...let us know on social media! We will be back with one final episode of the season, Q + A.
