Summary
This week, Marlon sits down with digital wellness pioneer Larissa May, AKA Larz, founder of #HalfTheStory and co-founder of Ginko. Together they explore how social media shapes our sense of self, why fear never creates lasting change, and how hope, integrity, and connection can. From the loneliness of early internet adolescence to her work shaping policy and curriculum for students around the world, Larz shares what she's learned about turning pain into purpose, using technology with intention, and building community in a culture that profits from distraction.
