Thriving without Social Media - A Chat with Mamatha Ramesh

"On Facebook, I had some 300 or 400 or so-called friends. But the people who I was actually in touch with on a regular basis, I've been in touch with them over the years from the time when there was no Facebook; just the good old telephone, and I still continue to do that. I think that for people who truly matter, you find ways to keep in touch. You don't need Facebook. You don't need social media."

In this 30-minute chat, we dive deep into so many things including:

✔️ Why she chose this particular role in her career

✔️ The very personal reason she left social media more than 8 years ago.

✔️ Why she never felt like going back

✔️ The role of parents in the age of social media

✔️ How to use social media - if you choose to continue down that path
