Social media is the new networking. We constantly find ourselves connecting with those on the screen sometimes more than those we meet in person. During this time where social distancing is becoming more and more the norm, we look towards social media for more connectivity. Not to mention the social pressures that social media sparks.

What isn’t show is the hard work that was put in behind the scenes to earn those things. Yet, we find ourselves wanting to compete with what others have on the internet.
