Welcome: “Rising Stars: Gen Z and the Evolution of Influencer Professions”

Welcome to my exhibit site! This Omeka site accompanies the newest episode of my podcast called "Cultural Changes with Caroline".

Today's topic is new and exciting! This week's episode is called “Rising Stars: Gen Z and the Evolution of Influencer Professions” which centers around the influence of technology & social media in the U.S. that has shifted and impacted Gen Z's career choices. The psychological concepts, the independent self, and the mere-exposure effect have been factors in making 'social media star' a new plausible career choice for Gen Z within the next 5 years.

In the next few minutes, while I guide you through this episode you will see examples of these psychological concepts and evidence that support this rise in influencer careers. Click my podcast link to follow along.
