The Dark Side of Social Media

Welcome to the first episode of season 2! I am so excited to start this season off with a very important conversation that dives deep into mental health. In this episode, I chat with Anastasia, who runs the This is My Brave Teens Instagram Account (@thisismybraveteens), about how social media can affect one's mental wellbeing. We share our struggles of comparing our progress with other's-- especially considering the fact that we are both teen digital creators, we discuss how the numbers on social media can mess with your head.  Additionally, we explore the difficulties of being Gen Z, having the expectation/pressure to academically excel, participate in many extracurriculars, AND create social change as a teen. We end this episode by reviewing how to recognize self worth in order to succeed in the future. Follow me on Instagram: @thestudybreakpodcast
