What no one is telling you about social media
In this episode, I shared the main reason why those platforms were created in the first place and also highlighted the issues we're currently left to deal with. FOMO is a huge factor as to why many users feel the need to constantly be on their phones. Social media should be used with intention and control because it can take a toll on your mental health. Heavy social media users are constantly left feeling inadequate. This is proven to cause depression and anxiety when it's not controlled.
I will like you to let me know in the comment section if there's a positive impact of social media on your mental health.

With a double identity all I wanted was to find my true self.
This story you’re about to hear is a very good example of how anyone can focus on the good things of life. We shouldn’t be defined by our past but by our ability to keep pushing through every time it seems difficult. He grew up with an identity just to be told a different story all together, determined to be successful he ran away from home to start afresh. He wanted to be successful and behold he has not only achieved a lot but is on the journey of breaking more boundaries.
