A Shifting Lens Pt. I: Social Media’s Role in Culture & Connection

PODCAST EPISODE 18

Today, we're tackling a topic that touches multiple generations: Digital Wellness. Social media, like art, reflects our culture—our values, desires, and insecurities. But the big question is: Do we shape it, or does it shape us? How aware are we of its influence in our lives? Can we reclaim our human relationships from its influence while magnifying its positive potential?

Keegan Lee has lived this question firsthand. A sophomore at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, she is already a published author, speaker, researcher, and curriculum writer on the subject of Digital Wellness. Out of her own struggle with mental health during the pandemic, she co-wrote 60 Days of Disconnect: A Personal Perspective on How Social Media Affects Mental Health, a powerful exploration of the digital world’s impact on our well-being.

This is the first of a two-part conversation exploring one of the most potent social influences across generations. I can’t wait for you to meet Keegan; she comes from the heart!
