#402: What is a Visual Detox and Do I Need One with Marine Tanguy


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m joined by Maureen Tanguy, author of The Visual Detox: How to Consume Media Without Letting it Consume You, to explore how the barrage of 10,000 daily images impacts our mental health and self-worth. We dive into the psychological effects of commercial imagery, the ethical role of content creators, and how social media algorithms shape our visual reality. Tune in for actionable steps to reclaim your visual space, enhance critical engagement with media, and advocate for a more authentic and inclusive visual culture.
