How STRESSED Are You?
Friday Night Live 20 September 2024
In this episode, I tackle the prevalent issue of stress, beginning with a personal reflection during my birthday week. I encourage listeners to assess their stress levels and discuss its various sources, particularly financial pressures affecting many. Highlighting that 66% of American adults cite money as a significant stressor, I explore its impact across demographics and emphasize coping strategies, including the benefits of nature and pets.
We also address how modern politics heighten stress and the importance of self-ownership in our responses. I advocate for philosophy as a tool for mental well-being and invite listeners to continue this crucial conversation as we navigate our shared experiences with stress.
