Social Media & Developing Self

from Barely Ready · host Green Pod Media

Social Media and the Developing Self explores what it means to discover who you are in a world that is constantly showing you who you should be. From likes and followers to trends, filters, and endless comparison, social media can quietly shape how adolescents see themselves and measure their worth. Behind the pressure to look perfect, fit in, and gain approval is a deeper struggle: Am I good enough as I am? This episode explores that struggle and helps young people recognize that their identity is bigger than a profile, their value cannot be counted in likes, and who they are becoming should never be determined by a screen.
