Everything’s Perfect… Except I Miss When Social Media Was Fun

Social media used to be fun—remember those days?

In this episode, Autumn and Donald take us on a nostalgic journey through the evolution of social media—remembering the days when it was all about fun, blurry Instagram photos, and harmless top friend drama on MySpace.

Social media has transformed from a lighthearted way to stay connected with friends and family into a high-pressure, highly curated, and sometimes anxiety-inducing part of our daily lives. Autumn and Donald candidly share their own experiences, from awkward profile photo mishaps and algorithm mysteries to the pressures of authenticity, online criticism, and setting personal boundaries in the digital world.

Plus, they explore the tricky territory of sharing personal milestones, dealing with negativity, and the impact of social platforms on mental health—especially for kids and teens. Tune in for relatable laughs, real talk, and actionable insights on how to reclaim a healthier, more joyful relationship with social media—without losing yourself (or your sanity) in the Instagram feed.
