Episode 9: Education and Mental Health Ideas

Meet Paris-based journalist Leah Gillis and New Jersey legal eagle Elura Nanos, college friends who talk current events and life girlfriend-style. Join them to hang, learn, and discover what’s going on that matters. On Instagram: @aleahthing @elurananos @youguysthepodcast (All times are estimates until we get more staff. Sponsor us!) It’s time. We have to talk about life with COVID, this regime in office and racism. How to handle it all? Kids and education in the COVID era first. Elura is a working mom of two facing all the questions and quandries of family life with COVID. Leah is a journalist in France, observing America’s COVID response from a country (and continent) with national healthcare and a responsive government focused on limiting exposure (what a concept!) The world is grappling with sending kids back to school right now, and since we love education, and think it needs some retooling anyway, let’s discuss! Do Americans have a blind spot when it comes to caring for people? Could we use COVID as an opportunity to bring about greater societal change? How in the world are families supposed to manage the decision-making for school-age kidsright now? About ‪15:00‬ COVID has put everyone’s mental health through the ringer right now. Elura and Leah share their coping mechanisms with you. From pickleball to meditation, turning inward to turning outward, seeking calm or seeking action – everyone has their own recipe for stress-relief.
