21# | Scrolling, Streaming, and Stressed – Coping with Media Overload

May 21, 2025

Watch here:

Endless streaming options, constant notifications, and the pressure to be ‘in the know’—sound familiar?

In this episode of Coffee Catch-ups Espresso ☕️, Tanya and Amelia dive into the rising phenomenon of media overwhelm. From the guilt of an ever-growing watchlist to the pressure to stay culturally updated, they unpack the mental load of living in a hyper-connected world. 🎧

In this episode, they discuss:

✔️ Why we feel so overwhelmed by content today

✔️ The pressure to keep up with everything—TV, podcasts, news, TikToks

✔️ How to make peace with missing out and reclaim your focus

🍟 Plus: A “Snack Chat” featuring rogue dips, McDonald’s fries in milkshakes, and cheese in hot chocolate?! 😲
