S1E3: “Do Not Suffer!” w. Mel Manning & Brooke Pribyl

A visit with two rural Nebraska moms to discuss their experiences with social media in various stages of motherhood highlights the value and pitfalls of social media. They shared how and when they engage with social media and how their use of the platforms changed when they became mothers. Both women felt a sense of connection when reading posts of other moms’ experiences like their own while noting that avoiding comparison to the polished posts often seen on social media is important for wellbeing.
