Show Notes
OMG CROSSOVER EPISODE! ๐ซถย
Today on the show, I'm celebrating our 99th episode (and my four-years-off-social-media anniversary!) by sharing a conversation I had with Rebekah Taussig and Caitlin Metz for their podcast Scratch That.
We get into things I've NEVER talked about publicly before, including:
- How my three-year-old self picked my present-day career path
- The four-minute version of my leaving-social-media story
- What Instagram has meant to Rebekah as a space to share her life & disability advocacy
- How social media supports introverts like Caitlin with relationship-building & belonging
- Ways to express your (queer) identity without social media
- The value of breaking out of our echo chambers & building local community
- How to stop using social media to numb out ๐
