In this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating connection between social media and human behavior. How are platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook reshaping the way we interact, form relationships, and even think?

We explore:

How social media affects real-world social skills and empathy
The psychological mechanisms behind likes, shares, and engagement
Why online behavior often differs from offline behavior
The long-term impact of digital culture on society and personal relationships

Drawing from research, interviews, and personal experience, we uncover the hidden ways social media influences our choices, habits, and even emotions.
