Your reminder that not everything you see online is exactly as it seems

About this episode

The episode discusses the unrealistic portrayals of life on social media and encourages listeners to be mindful of their online consumption.

In this episode of Lostish, we dive into the glossy “life filter” that social media creates, the one that makes everyone else’s life look perfect while leaving us questioning our own. From carefully curated posts to subtle comparison traps, we unpack how easily we take what we see online as truth and let it shape our thoughts, habits, and even our happiness. With personal stories and honest reflections, this episode is your gentle reminder to take a step back, scroll consciously, and remember: not everything online is real. Hope it resonates xx
