Creating Healthy Social Media & Phone Habits with Dr. Drea Letamendi
12/14/22 • 58 min
Do our phones and social media give us short-term happiness but long-term loneliness and isolation? Or are there actually ways we can connect digitally in meaningful ways? Dr. Drea Letamendi is back to answer all these questions/tell us if we've turned into complete zombies.
