Boundaries & social media
We should all expect better from social media
September 4, 2024
Hi there - the first in my series on boundaries and real-life / real-work situations is live, here. By special request, the topic of this one is boundaries and social media.
I’m not pulling any punches, either. From punishing algorithms to complete lack of competent moderation, social media isn’t doing our mental health any favors these days.

Image description: graphic showing the title and first few words of the article on Patreon. It reads, "Boundaries and social media. Social media and boundaries. What comes to mind for you when I put these two things together? Do you think of horrible trolling..." At the bottom of the graphic it has my name with a link to my Patreon page.
If you have friends and colleagues who could benefit from learning more about boundaries and the way we really act in the world, please forward this message to them. They can sign up for this mailing list via the button below, or they can simply subscribe directly to my Patreon.*

Here’s hoping you have a boundaried week,

*I’m making most of my content on Patreon available to members only - but that includes free members, too. This is another boundary decision that I’ve made because sometimes I talk about things that are personal, or topics that make people very angry - like how I’m working to fight racism and misogyny.
My goal is to create a space that’s safe enough for you and me to be in a community together and also talk about very hard things. We can be courageous together but there’s no reason to make ourselves into targets for abuse, as so often happens in open-to-the-public-and-trolls social media. So yes, you’ll need to join my community on Patreon to see most of what I’ll be saying there. Thanks for understanding. I look forward to seeing you there.
