Description

This week Ghazi and Will take a look at the concept of social media how much of an influence it has on someone’s self esteem.  Where people look to for validation and why they look there. 

 

Do we chase trends that are dictated to us by the platforms that we are exposed to, do we see ourselves as failures if we don’t perceive ourselves to fit in a predetermined ideal? What does your life highlight reel look like and are you comparing and competing with other people’s half-baked truth. 

 

Using social media is such an integral part of peoples lives however knowing the difference between being inspired by what you see rather than aspiring to be someone we see seems to be pretty important, but is it practically achievable? 

 

The idea of social media celebrity and the responsibility that lay before them to have authenticity and be genuine around products and endorsements is discussed. The fashion industry is spoken about with the idea of how it uses social media and marketing to illicit the consumer to chase the trends. 


At the end we highlight some amazing fitness industry trending exercises
