Off The Grid: Leaving Social Media Without Losing All Your Clients

Today I’m welcoming Christy Harrison MPH, RD, CEDS to the pod to talk about how social media platforms have lead to mass misinformation being spread online — and why that’s harmful to all of us, whether we think we fall prey to it or not.

Together, we talk about the parallels between wellness culture and social media culture, how misinformation spreads online, and the way that social media weakens our inner authority.

We also get into our personal and business relationships to social media, and have a candid chat about why Christy’s still on Instagram.

Tune in to hear more about:

The aspirational nature of wellness & social media
Why false information spreads faster & farther than the truth online
How to values personal stories and scientific evidence simultaneously
The value of solitude in reconnecting to ourselves
