131. SkinnyTok, Starving for Validation, and the Battle for Our Kids' Minds

Teens are starving—physically, emotionally, and mentally—and TikTok is feeding them the wrong kind of content. In this powerful episode, therapist Alicja sits down with nurse practitioner David Glenn to break down the toxic world of SkinnyTok, the TikTok subculture glamorizing disordered eating and extreme body ideals.

Through humor, skits, and brutally honest conversation, Alicja and David explore:

• Why teens fall for "skinny" influencer advice

• How to talk to your kids without triggering rebellion

• The effects of dopamine addiction from social media

• Why hyper-empathy and over-validation can be harmful

• What healthy self-love and parenting really look like

Whether you're a parent, educator, or just someone trying to untangle the mess of social media and mental health, this episode is a must-listen.
