Learn moreTechnology affects every interaction, shapes our identities and constantly hijacks our attention. So how can we reclaim our power and feel less helpless at every stage of our lives?
In a world full of algorithms, addictive apps and data-driven adverts, it often feels as if the digital environment is determining our behaviour. We trace our steps, track our kids and share our lives online, without really knowing whether this technology is serving our best interests โ or those of the people we love.
We speak as though technology is a powerful, unstoppable force and we are the victims. 'What is this technology doing to us?' we ask. But are we as helpless as we assume?
Journeying from digital gestation to the digital afterlife, through infancy, adolescence and adulthood, Elaine Kasket connects the dots between our technology usage and the challenges it poses to our identity and development, and to our relationships and privacy.
Elaine Kasket is a psychologist, keynote speaker and coach, and an expert on the modern challenges and opportunities brought about by technology. Speaking about mental health, relationships, privacy and the power of big tech, Elaine appears frequently in the mainstream media as well as on podcasts and at major festivals. American by birth, Elaine now lives in London with her husband and child. A reformed โsharenterโ, she champions the power and importance of telling our own stories.
