Capitalism, Internet and Mental Health w/ Mani and Shweta | The MindClan

Mental health and content creation. Two important topics over the last few years. This episode operates at the intersection of both.We speak to Manikantan Kumar and Shweta Srinivasan, co-founders of the mental health resource curation platform, The Mind Clan. The former is a technologist, the latter is a practising therapist.We speak about the positive AND negative impacts operating at the intersection of these two worlds.Of course, social media has had negative effects, and creators can feel burnout.At the same time, it can spark immense joy for those who use it as a creative outlet - backed by science! This of course is a key tenet of what we preach at The 6% Club.We talk about containing multitudes, the mind-body connection and mental health challenges for those in their 30s. This is a warm, fuzzy, yet insightful conversation and we're sure everyone will have something to take away from it.
