Host: Tina White
Podcast: The Trigger and The Truth
Series: July Spotlight – Mental Health & Entrepreneurship
💡 Episode Summary:In today’s episode of The Trigger and The Truth, we’re pulling back the curtain on a reality many of us get caught in—the carefully curated facade of social media.
We live in a world where success is filtered, happiness is staged, and highlight reels have replaced honesty. But what’s the cost of chasing a life that looks good online but feels empty offline?
I’m breaking down the mental health toll of constantly comparing yourself to someone else’s performance. From anxiety and depression to disconnection and burnout, we’re diving into how this digital pressure impacts entrepreneurs, working moms, and women trying to build their business while holding onto their peace.
Most importantly, we’ll explore how to break free from this social media trap and build a life you don’t have to filter to love.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:- The hidden dangers of selective sharing and staged success stories
- Why comparing your behind-the-scenes to someone’s highlight reel destroys your peace
- The emotional and mental health impact of the “social media hustle culture”
- How to set boundaries with social media to protect your emotional mastery
- Practical ways to detox from comparison and focus on what really matters
- How the Pick Up The Pieces: 21 Day Emotional Mastery Strategy for Black Women in Business can help you reclaim your peace in the digital age
Key Takeaways:
✔️ Social media is curated content, not complete truth. Stop comparing your real life to someone’s filtered moments.
✔️ Protect your mental health by defining success on your terms, not Instagram’s.
✔️ Emotional mastery means knowing when to unplug and reconnect with your real life.
Practical Exercises:- Social Media Detox: Take 1 day off this week and reconnect with your real life.
