In this episode, we talk about the documentary ‘The Social Dilemma’ and how social media impacts mental health. The film goes into depth on how social media’s design is meant to nurture an addiction, manipulate people and governments, spread conspiracy theories and misinformation. Our featured guest is our long time bestie, Newton! Coming from a design & UX/UI perspective, Newton shares how he thinks the generation is shifting towards positive change when it comes to social media. Oftentimes, all we hear are the negative impacts of social media. In this episode, we discuss the positive impacts that wouldn’t have existed without the advancement of technology and social media. We also share our healthy (and not so healthy) habits when it comes to setting boundaries with social media. Do detoxes work? Tune in to find out!
