Today’s episode is a special guest episode with Amy Downes, The Content Wizard, and our topic this week is a meaty one – social media and our wellbeing (can the two mix?!). Amy is a huge Harry Potter fan, hence the many (apt) references – such as how we avoid the ‘Dementor’ mode of social media (when it sucks all the joy from us by usingit). Social media is a form of escapism, but there is a dark as well as a light side to it. Amy is very candid about her own experiences of socialmedia, for better and for worse, personally and professionally, from trolling to real-life friendships made over social media. She gives us all plenty to think about, anddiscusses the signs we may notice that mean we may want to consider how healthy our relationship is with social media.Today’s question for you to mull over: ‘What step, even a small one, might you be able to taketo improve your social media wellbeing?’ Find Amy here: www.facebook.com/groups/contentwizardsand www.instagram.com/contentwizardukResourcesAmy’s 'Conserve Your Magic: Mini-Guide' (a small collection of spells to help find ways to feel calmer around social media.
