Just Sharing or Oversharing? The Cost of Vulnerability Online.

In this week’s episode of Because We Said So, we kick things off with all the looks, slays and serves from Durban July 2025 — the girls (and the gents) did not come to play! We also catch up on the latest Love Island drama (because duh, what’s a week without it?) and then dive into the story that’s taken over South African social media, the Grace Mandlana discourse.From there, we unpack a deeper conversation — the cost of vulnerability online.We reflect on our own experiences of opening up on the internet, how it’s sometimes healing, sometimes heavy, and what it really means to be soft in such a public space. We also tie it all back to the week’s pop culture rewind.As always, we’re keeping it honest, a little chaotic, and deeply reflective.Have you ever felt like you overshared online? Or do you think vulnerability is empowering?
