About this episode

Social media can be one emotional rollercoaster! When we get a like, comment, message, or follow, we're on top of the world but as soon as we're hit with a mean comment, unfollow, or comparisons to others, things get messy. 

 

Dr. Sarah Rasmi, is a psychologist with a PhD from Canada and she joins me in this podcast episode to get you started with the tools and advice you need to make it through this labyrinth we call social media.
