In this episode, I delve into the delicate balance between self-compassion and the pursuit of authenticity on social media. I discuss the intense pressure to maintain an authentic presence online and how this can affect our mental health. I open up about a personal tragic event in my life and the struggles I faced in sharing it authentically. It's crucial, I argue, to find a balance between being true to oneself and not losing sight of self-compassion. I stress the importance of setting realistic expectations and the role of self-compassion in our lives. The episode wraps up with my thoughts on prioritizing mental health and I share steps for you to practice more self compassion!
