40: Solo Jam: Social media has got us all FU**** UP!! Also, what are we all rushing towards?

The text message that inspired this episode recording: "What's happening is that it's putting pressure on everyone to rush through life to achieve a certain something. And piling on so much at one time to get to said "something" faster is overwhelming for people's capacities."

Text conversations with two good girlfriends made me pause and reflect on how overwhelmed most of us are. The constant need to keep up with the Joneses, or these days the Kardashians, has a lot of people in our society overwhelmed and burned out. As millenials, we are not okay.

In this episode, I discuss:

• MY OPINION (note these are just my thoughts so you can totally disagree) on the impact social media is having on us millenials as a generation and how it has also severely impacted Gen Z
• How millenials are dealing with a lot more pressure than our parents faced because we are constantly over-inundated and overstimulated with the lives of thousands or millions of other people
• Why we need to reevaluate our lives and commitments to see where we can simplify and/or release certain responsibilities
• Why we should all be seeking ways to prioritize soul-care and release including therapy and somatic practices
• How taking a break/detox from social media can be a really helpful way to heal and release the pressure
