Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Or We Could Talk About It, I get real about what it’s been like trying to post more consistently online—especially on TikTok. I share the mental back-and-forth that comes with low views vs. posts that did pretty well, how easy it is to tie numbers to your self-worth (even when you know better), and what I’ve been doing to stay motivated when I’ve felt stuck. I also talk about pushing through social anxiety to make it to the gym, applying to jobs, and all the small steps I’ve been taking to (hopefully—fingers crossed) finally break out of the endless loop I always seem to fall back into.In the second half, I go off on a tangent about ChatGPT (yes, I know I say it “ChatGBT” but I’m lazy) and AI—don’t ask me why lol. I talk about my hesitation with using it, the weird effects I’ve noticed in myself even after just a short time, and some what-ifs and lowkey conspiracies about how it might affect the future—especially the way we think, connect, and evolve. Basically just me thinking out loud and wondering what happens if we let tech start doing the heavy lifting for us.If you’ve ever felt weird about social media, addicted to your own content, or a little unsettled by how fast tech is moving—then same.-Meghan
