154: Critically Assessing Trends



Trends come and go quicker than ever thanks to social media and the rise of TikTok, trends no longer only come from celebrities or mainstream media and there are different trends every week which can feel overwhelming. That’s why this week we’re discussing the need to critically assess trends, to decide if it’s something you need or is it something that’s actually harmful to you or others if you take part in it.

From the return of “heroine chic”, to hot girl walks, the 5am club, serial killer costumes and the latest trend of deinfluencing, tune in to hear us chat about why it’s so important to step back and assess the impact of trends.
