We as human beings are social creatures - we need to be around others to thrive in life. In-person connections can ease stress, anxiety, and depression, boost self-worth, provide comfort and joy, prevent loneliness, and even add years to your life.

So when these connections are made it makes a huge impact on our mental health and overall happiness.

But as technology has advanced we tend to rely on social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram to fill that connection need.

This virtual communication on social media doesn't have the same psychological benefits as face-to-face contact has.

Inside this episode, I share some of the signs that it may be time to re-examine your online habits. Plus, offer you ways to prevent social media from impacting your mental health. Includes a special BONUS for teens and young adults in the show notes.

While I'm usually helping female business builders strengthen their personal brand to gain more sales - the same strategies I teach can also pour into other industries such as college sports.

As you may know, I've been around college athletics as a girlfriend turned wife of a Division I... then player now a coach... for over 20 years.

Coaching for 16 years, my husband has been at four colleges from an assistant at a couple of mid-major schools then onto a power five school and now the head coach at a mid-major.

So today, instead of talking to you myself about how branding is used in college athletics I have a special guest with me - my husband and college men's basketball head coach for SEMO - Southeast Missouri State University - Brad Korn.

If you have a son or daughter or relative looking to be recruited by a college for sports or even academics please share this episode with them. I believe this content is valuable to any student and how they can shape their reputation using social media.
