Ever wondered if we actually need Instagram, or if it’s just a habit we’ve all picked up without questioning it? In this episode of my podcast, I share my honest thoughts about the role Instagram and social media play in our everyday lives.
I talk about my own experiences with endless scrolling, social media pressure, likes, followers, and the Instagram algorithm, and how these things can affect our time, focus, and even mental health. I also explore the positives—staying connected, content creation, personal branding, and building an online presence—and whether those benefits really outweigh the downsides.
Through this conversation, I dive into topics like social media addiction, screen time, digital minimalism, influencer culture, and the fear of missing out (FOMO) that keeps many of us coming back to the app.
If you’ve ever thought about quitting Instagram, taking a social media detox, reducing screen time, or building a healthier relationship with social media, this episode might resonate with you.
