Why Social Media is Low-Key Ruining Real Friendships (Let’s Talk About It)

In this episode of the Call Your Mom Podcast, we cover:

💭 Why watching your friends' posts can make you feel low-key left out (hello, FOMO)

🧊 The weirdness of being randomly blocked... and how to not take it personally

🎉 Why social media makes us feel like we need a friend group that’s constantly on vacation

📲 Generational differences — aka why birthday posts are a thing (and why some of us still text like it's 2012)

💬 Why memes and DMs aren't really the same as checking in with someone IRL

🧠 The guilt, the comparison, the assumptions — and how to fight back with real connection

💡 Simple ways to prioritize deeper friendships off the apps

✨ Real Talk Reminder: Social media is a tool — not your friendship thermometer. Let’s normalize being intentional and real, not just reactive and curated.

Let's get social!
