Oracy and Human Connection: How can children hold on to their sense of self in an age of AI and social media - Shilpa Jamieson

"To me, oracy is life. We are animals from time beyond. If we've been evolved to communicate, we need to communicate to survive. So, it's life, isn't it?" - Shilpa JamiesonShilpa Jamieson is family coach, a speaker, and an author. Her work centres around human connection, particularly in families and with young people at the heart of it all.In this episode Shilpa chats about:How children can hold on to a sense of self when their world is increasingly filled with outside pressures from A.I. and social media. Why teaching her 4 pillars - self-knowledge, self-trust, self-worth, and connection - can help children express themselves amongst their peers and within their families. How a recipe for cake can help young people bake themselves a metaphor for happiness. How she teaches "communicate your emotion, don't be your emotion" to take ownership of their feelings rather than blaming others. This episode was recorded before, and is being released at the end of Children's Mental Health Week. In light of that, Shilpa has recorded a masterclass which you can find at her website.
