Knowing … the impact of our Social Media use

On this episode of Knowing Me, Knowing You, Trent and Dave explore the impacts of social media on mental health, including:

discussing how they use social media (both personally and professionally) and its impacts on their mental health,
sharing a ‘behind the scenes’ understanding of how and why social media channels use their platforms to market to us, as well as
talking through a research paper, which raises some of the implications of social media on mental health.

You can find the Neuroscience of Consciousness article the boys discuss here: ‘Digital Being: social media and the predictive mind‘
