The Ups and Downs of Social Media with Alli Simpson

Update: 2018-11-01

Description

Alli Simpson is an actress, singer, model, host and all-round creative who was one of the first people to be labelled a social media influencer. Despite having over 1.4 million followers on Instagram alone Alli herself posted: “so I think social media harms your mental health”. Alli spoke with us about both the positive and negative sides of social media and how to stay present in the world. Alli also shared some of her experience being completely cut off from the online world, in a 10 day experience of homelessness on SBS’s Filthy Rich and Homeless program.
