How We're Using Social Media Lately

About this episode

Register for Kelsey's workshop: Everyday Habits, Routines, and Rituals. Starts Monday, September 9th!


As social media has changed, so have our habits. Join us as we reflect and check in with ourselves. We share how we use social media lately, how we feel about it, and how our habits have changed over time. Plus the pros and cons we see in social media for ourselves and society.

For Friends of the Show, we share how we're thinking about allowing our kids use social media (or not).
