In this episode of 'Navigating the Digital Jungle', Sue Atkins is joined by Angeline Corvaglia, creator of Data Girl and Friends, to explore the impact of social media on girls' body image and self-esteem.
Drawing on insights from social psychologist Jonathan Haidt's book 'The Anxious Generation', they discuss the mental health challenges young girls face due to the unrealistic standards presented on platforms like Instagram and TikTok. They emphasise the importance of promoting media literacy, encouraging offline activities, and fostering open conversations within families.
Angeline shares her personal experiences and insights into how AI and algorithms exacerbate these issues while offering practical tips for parents to support their children.
The episode concludes with a call to action for World Digital Detox Day and a segment on family change focused on promoting positive role models and critical evaluation of online content.

Anorexia | What To Do If You Think You Have Anorexia
In England, young people under the age of 18 can refer themselves to community eating disorder services. But be aware that some services have suspended self-referral due to high demand.
Speak to your GP. They aren’t experts in anorexia so won’t be able to treat you themselves, but they can help you get the right treatment and support.
They’ll refer you to a specialist eating disorder service, a psychiatrist, or another expert who can help. If you don’t get a referral to a specialist service, it’s okay to ask for one.
