Post-grad has come with its good share of alone time, and after many months of very few human interactions, it's been getting  a tad lonely. I'm sure you can understand this even if you're not in the post-grad stage of life. While thinking about loneliness, I came to understand how I use social media as a means to combat loneliness. In this episode, I discuss the topics of loneliness in college + post-grad life, finstas + my theories as to why people have them, and my experience with social media, sharing, and how I really think the desire to share our lives is just a basic human characteristic. If you're feeling lonely, have a listen. If you're struggling in college and post-grad with fostering intentional relationships, have a listen. If you have no idea what a finsta is, have a listen.
