Ever found yourself mentally high-fiving yourself because of that slightly cryptic Instagram post you put up? You know, the one strategically tailored for your ex or your long-lost BFF to see? Or that day you reached the pinnacle of boredom and decided to make an exclusive "Close Friends" list with a grand total of one member - your ex? 

If you're nodding, well, we need to talk.

In this episode, your girl gets down and dirty with the complicated relationship we share with Instagram. Not just the addictive scrolling, but the less-talked-about passive-aggressive communication, the quest for validation, and the good ol' fashioned time sink.

From a deep dive into a personal tale of solitude, reinvention, and screen-time statistics (Spoiler: It’s in the double digits, people), to reflections on toxic relationships, join me as I peek behind the curtain of social media, unmask its impact on my mental health, and learn how to strike a healthy balance.

What does authenticity mean in a world of filters and face-tuners? It means showing the world that it’s okay to not have your life wrapped in a perfect bow. So, let's strive to put the 'real' back in 'real-time updates', shall we?

So remember, kids:

Not everything that glitters on the 'gram is gold. Keep that in mind next time you hit refresh.
