So far, we’ve been discussing the dire effects of social media addiction and how much pressure the digital age has brought with it. But there needs to be a balance. In this episode, we explore the two sides of the coin that is social media.
Our guest is Asa Morse, a mental health advocate and a trauma survivor from Liberia. She talks about whether the good for social media outweighs the bad or if there is a need to level the playing field.
