Spotlight Moment from Episode 2: Why social media connection is a myth ...
Description
In this Spotlight Moment from Episode 2 with Dr Samantha Marsh, we hear how today’s young people are the loneliest generation, despite being more connected than ever. This snippet explores why social media isn’t creating real connection and what true friendship looks like in the digital age.
This is an important, eye-opening conversation about the very real risks of social media, and the changes we can all make to support one young mind at a time.
