Episode 19: Boundaries in the Digital Age
About this episode
The episode explores parasocial relationships and the challenges of maintaining boundaries as public figures.
Have you ever felt like you really knew someone from the internet? This week, we're joined by Yolanda and Yaya as we unpack parasocial relationships and what it's like to have thousands of people feel connected to you after watching your life unfold on national television. From their time on Big Brother to navigating life as public figures, we talk about fan culture, setting boundaries online, and the fine line between being relatable and being accessible. We also reflect on the pressure of living in the public eye, staying true to yourself, and what it means to build a community without losing yourself in the process.
