Скачать или смотреть 014. Make Social Media Life-Giving in 2026– Notes on Integrity in a Performative World.

In this episode, I open up about the realities of social media—the way it shapes our thoughts, relationships, and even our sense of self. I share my own struggles (yes, I’ve wanted to throw my whole podcast in the bin), the clunky and sometimes effective strategies I use, and what I’m learning about finding a healthy balance.

What’s the real cost of living online all the time? How do I carve out that sweet spot between “all in” and “all off”? I invite you into my process—messy, honest, and hopefully useful.

✨ What I Explore:
Why pedestaling people online leads to perfectionism—for everyone
How criticism (“You’re harsh and condescending…”) can actually make me softer, freer, and more authentic
The practical habits I’m testing: second phones, deleting apps, post-and-ghost
How too much scrolling fuels indecision, confusion, and anxiety
Why my true life and nearest relationships matter more than my Instagram bio
Tribalism, shallow judgment, and how social media can erode critical thinking and compassion
The danger of letting my phone steal time—and joy—from my family
