Posing and posting for #thegram, even open casket at your dad's funeral? Welp, this IG model or influencer did look fierce if we had to be objective. The backlash was all too real. She eventually quit the game all together. But we are sure, she will come back again. \n\nBad press is just as good as Good press. \n\nIn this episode of the Financial Griot, the crew is back together and talking about all of it. In the advent of social media, has all the attention created a toxic social narrative. Unfortunately, only #cancelculture, an equally toxic movement can help.\n\nIt begs the question, \"when is enough, enough?\" \n\nDo the followers make you happy or has it become an endless chore chasing Instagram viral #reels, challenges, memes and Tik Tok dancing. Is this new #OnlyFans culture worst our bodies and minds? Or do we really need to take a couple steps back? \n\nIG burnout culture is real and we created it. ATL, Lovely and LG share their thoughts.\n\nAs always, thank you for tuning in and downloading our episodes or listening to our new YouTube channel. We promise to constantly beg you to Like, Share, Comment and Subscribe because we are desperate for the validation as well. Damn, it's that toxic. "}
