In this episode of Tamarindo, we explore how social media affects our mental health and share easy ways to cut back without feeling out of the loop. We start with a fun game to see just how much screen time we’re logging, then dive into how social media can lead to anxiety, and interfere with our sleep and self-esteem. We’ll talk about "doomscrolling," recognizing signs of social media addiction.We offer practical tips for reducing social media use—think small changes that make a big difference—so you can enjoy the benefits of being more present in the real world.

Tamarindo is a lighthearted show hosted by Brenda Gonzalez and Delsy Sandoval talking about politics, culture, and self-development. We’re here to uplift our community through powerful conversations with changemakers, creatives, and healers. Join us as we delve into discussions on race, gender, representation, and life!
