The Age of Being Seen: How Social Media Is Reshaping Identity | Patricia Martin (EP456)

We've heard countless conversations about how technology affects our attention spans, productivity, and relationships - but what if the greatest cost of our digital lives is much deeper?

In this episode, Diane sits down with Patricia Martin, author of Will the Future Like You?, to explore how constant connectivity, social media, and the pressure to continually reinvent ourselves are reshaping our identities. Together, they discuss what it means to know ourselves in an age where external validation is always within reach and why cultivating a grounded sense of self has become more important than ever.
