16: Social Media and Mental Health w/ Mao Beckett of The Millennial Therapists Podcast
Show Notes

In this episode I get to chat with Mao Beckett, one half of The Millennial Therapists Podcast and licensed therapist, to talk about how social media affects our mental health. We talk about the pros and cons of the internet, how to set boundaries with social media and why it seems like everything is so negative online these days! We also muse about old school serial killers using the internet and why we need to decolonize wellness. I also guested on The Millennial Therapists Podcast discussing the Facebook Catfish Murders, so check it out if you want a taste of true crime from a therapist's perspective!
