Let's be honest: as much as social media aims to connect people to each other and inspire, it can also be a very toxic space that makes us feel like we're behind and negatively impacts not only our mental health but also our imaan.

In this episode, I am joined by the beautiful Ghena from Deen and Chai, a fellow Islamic Lifestyle content creator who really inspires me and has so much wisdom to share Allahuma barek. We first talk about our journeys on social media, how we personally deal with comparison and finally share with you a few pieces of advice on how to get out of the unhealthy comparison trap, get the best out of social media and build a strong community of sisters.
