Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, beautiful souls, Rachel Carter, here your daily dose of
self love sunshine. Ever scroll through social media and feel
like everyone else's life is picture perfect, like their effortlessly glowing,
while you're just over here trying to figure out if
the serial bowl is clean enough for the esthetic post.
Let's be real that curated online world can do a
number on our self love journey. It's like watching a

(00:22):
highlight reel of everyone else's best moments, making it easy
to forget that life isn't always sunshine and rainbows. But
guess what We're here to turn that frown upside down.
Today's episode is all about navigating the tricky relationship between
social media, self love, and mental health. We'll unpack some
practical strategies to help you reclaim your inner glow even

(00:42):
when those endless feeds are screaming comparisonitis at you. First
things first, social media isn't inherently bad. It can be
a fantastic tool for connection, inspiration, and sharing our stories.
But just like that extra slice of pizza, too much
of it can leave as feeling bloated in a little off.
We've got to be mindful of how we consume it right.

(01:03):
Number one take away unfollow accounts that drain your energy. Seriously,
if someone's feed makes you feel inadequate, envious, or just
plain blaw, hit that unfollow button. Like your self love
depends on it, because it kinda does. Remember, you have
the power to curate your own online experience. Choose accounts
that uplift you, inspire you, and make you want to

(01:24):
be a better version of yourself. Speaking of self improvement,
let's talk about comparison. You know that feeling when you
see someone flaunting their dream vacation or perfectly curated home
and suddenly your own life feels lacking. Trust me, we've
all been there. Remember, social media is a highlight reel,
not real life. People tend to showcase the best parts

(01:45):
of themselves, leaving out the messy bits we all struggle with.
So instead of comparing yourself to others, focus on celebrating
your own unique journey. Next up, limit your time scrolling.
It's like that addictive reality TV show you know you
shouldn't watch, but just can't resist. Before you know it,
hours have flown by. Set realistic limits for your social

(02:05):
media usage and stick to them. Replace those mindless scrolling
sessions with activities that nourish your soul. Reading a good book,
taking a walk in nature, or catching up with loved
ones face to face another golden nugget. Practice gratitude. Seriously,
take a few moments each day to appreciate the good
things in your life. That cozy sweater you love, the

(02:26):
sound of laughter, a delicious cup of coffee, whatever brings
you joy. When we focus on the positive, it shifts
our perspective and helps us feel more content with ourselves.
And finally, remember that self love is an ongoing journey,
not a destination. There will be days when social media
feels like a minefield, and that's okay. Be kind to yourself,

(02:46):
give yourself grace, and keep striving towards a relationship with
social media that supports your well being. All right, let's
talk about something relatable. Remember that time you saw a
picture of someone rocking the perfect beach body and suddenly
felt like your own bait bathing suit just wouldn't do?
You know that sinking feeling when comparison starts creeping in.
We've all been there. That's social media. It's most insidious,

(03:09):
making us question our worth based on unrealistic standards. But
here's the thing true, beauty comes from within. It's about
embracing your individuality, loving your flaws, and celebrating what makes
you unique. Think of it like this, Instead of comparing
yourself to that air brushed image, focus on what makes
you amazing. Maybe it's your infectious laugh, your kindness, or

(03:30):
your ability to rock a pair of mismatched socks with confidence. Remember,
social media is just one tiny piece of the puzzle.
Don't let it define you or steal your joy. So,
my beautiful listeners, here's what we've covered today. Be mindful
of who you follow, ditch those comparisons, set limits on
your scrolling time, practice gratitude, and most importantly, remember that

(03:51):
true self love comes from within. Now go out there
and shine. Share this episode with your friends, leave a review,
or join the conversation on social media. Let's keep spreading
the love and reminding each other that we are all
worthy of happiness and self acceptance. This podcast is created
