The Return of Essena O'Neill - interview with the instagram model who quit social media

Interviewing Essena O'Neill, as she returns to social media for the first time in four years. Hope y'all enjoy!! #internetanalysis #EssenaOneill
in 2015, Essena famously declared, "social media is not real life!" She deleted tons of photos and updated her captions on the rest, to reflect the reality of what's behind the image. In this interview we discuss influencers, social media, body image, university, veganism, and more!
