#42: Is Instagram Wrecking Your Relationship? Why Social Media Is Fueling Disconnection, Microcheating & Anxiety

The Farrows Season 2 Episode 42

Talk to Nichole and Ben.

You open Instagram for a quick scroll... and suddenly you’re spiraling.
 Someone else’s relationship looks more romantic. Their kids look more well-behaved. Their home is cleaner, their life more “together.”

You’re not alone.

In this episode, Nichole and Ben get real about how social media is quietly rewiring the way we think about love, marriage, and parenting. From the toxic pull of comparison culture to the rise of microcheating, they unpack the silent ways our online lives are messing with our real ones.

They talk honestly about how we’ve started measuring our relationships by curated posts, not real connection—and how easy it is to start feeling like you’re falling short in your marriage, your family, or your life.

If you've ever looked at your screen and thought, “Why don’t I have that?” or felt guilt, resentment, or anxiety after seeing someone else’s “perfect” day, this conversation is for you.

Because the truth is, the grass isn’t greener. You’re just distracted.
 And what you have? It might already be enough—if you’d stop scrolling long enough to see it.
