In this episode, I share how I realized my social media feed had started to influence my thoughts and habits in unhealthy ways. I unpack how algorithms learn from what we watch, like, and linger on—often shaping our minds more than we realize. I talk about how these patterns can impact our mental health and spiritual life, and how we can take back control through simple, intentional choices. You’ll hear how I reset my feed, unfollowed negative influences, and replaced them with faith-filled, life-giving content that brought peace and clarity back to my day.
