Welcome back to The More You Grow Podcast in 2022! I'm going to be updating you on what's been going on growth-wise in my life, and letting you know all about our guest episode happening on Wednesday February 2, 2022.     

The holidays can be tough! Gratitude, a practice that we often use to be grateful for the things in our life. But what about gratitude for people in our lives who are particularly difficult?   Gratitude can also help us when the holidays may be tough, or when we are having a particularly hard time with a friend or family member. Recently, I completed the book "The Magic" by Rhonda Byrne, which was an almost full month daily gratitude practice book that really dove into the practice and different ways that we can do it. I found this one practice particularly helpful for those difficult moments/people in our lives. I hope it helps you as much as it did me.

Today I'm discussing Keyboard Warriors, what makes people post things online that they wouldn't say offline (and also the Online Disinhibition Effect). We will be talking about Maslow's Hierarchy of needs and why these comments affect us, as well as the psychological control social media can have over us all. Some social media influencers and olympians have said that they were also negatively impacted by social media, going as far as to say they want to delete their account (Suni Lee) or that they don't find it as fun anymore (Charlie D'Amelio) Lastly, I'll be sharing a time when these comments really affected me personally.  Learn more about our mission of staying well on social media (Social Media Wellness): www.moreyougrow.org 

If you haven't already heard, I'm moving to Michigan! So many questions have been surrounding this move so I wanted to talk more about it, as well as shoutout some of the organizations that have been instrumental in helping me make this move.  While I've been applauded for getting up and going, I always put so much thought into everything that I do. There have been ups and downs along the way, and of course-it's emotional! Taking time to understand all of the different facets has been key.  The biggest thing I'm after: accelerated growth! I just know that's going to happen for me here in Traverse City, MI.  For more: www.moreyougrow.org 

After much reflection, it really seems that many of the problems of our online experience stem from problems in our offline experience, mainly toxic work culture here in the US.  To change how we feel online we have to examine how our work culture has really taken over our lives. It is starting to feel like the American Dream is really just a dream. There is also this new pervasive movement to live to work, instead of work to live. When did we all start making our job our identity?  The problem is complex, but I believe with awareness and standing up for how toxic work culture really impacts us we can start to move in the right direction.  For more: www.moreyougrow.org
