A Mission Worth Fighting For

Hi, I'm Conner, a 20-year-old who's spent the last few years building a life on social media. By 18, I had grown millions of followers and seen firsthand how powerful these platforms can be. I love social media, but I've also seen how it silently shapes people (especially kids) in ways they don't even notice.

That’s why I launched this site.

Right now, teens spend 6 to 8 hours a day online, yet schools barely talk about how to use social media well. We teach CPR. We teach driver’s ed. But we’re not teaching students how to stay mentally healthy in the digital world they navigate daily?

We’re calling for a simple, one-week “Digital Truth” unit to be added to high school health, P.E., or life skills classes.

Understand how algorithms shape what they see

Recognize early signs of comparison, fatigue, and identity distortion

Curate healthier feeds that don't silently fuel insecurity

Build boundaries and reclaim agency online

This isn't about banning phones or blaming apps. The problem is most users don't realize they're in control of the experience they're having. They're curating their own mental health without even knowing it.

I've lived both sides of this system, as the 15-year-old glued to a screen and as the creator producing content seen by millions. I know what people aspire to, and I know what it costs.

If we don’t teach kids how to use social media consciously, they’ll keep consuming unconsciously - and suffering for it.

Some eye-opening stats:

Nearly half of U.S. teens feel addicted to social media

Teens with 4+ hours/day screen time are twice as likely to report anxiety or depression

The average teen now spends 49 hours/week on social media — 1 in 10 spend over 80

If you’ve ever compared yourself to a filtered photo or worried about someone you love disappearing into their screen, you know this matters.

Creator with 300k+ followers, shares positive life advice despite living with disabilties

“We are what we consume. Not only do we have to be mindful about what we feed our bodies, but also what we feed our minds. If we don’t take the initiative to understand and define these algorithms, then eventually they will define us and end up being one of the sole reasons we are witnessing one of the most depressed, unfulfilled, and lonely generations in the US.”
