59: Raising a Generation Under Pressure

In this episode I explore the quiet exhaustion shaping today’s generation - one growing up under constant pressure, comparison, and connection. From excessive screen time to the relentless influence of social media, many young people are navigating a world where rest feels unproductive, validation is public, and being “always on” is the norm.I unpack how digital culture is impacting mental health, identity, self-worth, and emotional resilience. This isn’t about blame - it’s about awareness, compassion, and asking better questions about what our kids, teens, and young adults are carrying beneath the surface.If you’re a parent, educator, caregiver, or simply someone wondering how we got here , this conversation invites you to pause, reflect, and consider how we can protect the heart in a screen-saturated world.
