Episode One - Who Are We Online? The Digital Identity Starter Pack

9m | Dec 6, 2025

In this episode, we unpack what it means to have a “digital identity” and why the version of ourselves online can feel different from who we are offline. From curated profiles to algorithm-driven personas, we explore how identity is shaped, performed, and sometimes completely reinvented in digital spaces. Expect relatable examples, academic insights, and a few laughs along the way.
