Generation Dread: Turning Climate Collapse Into Collective Purpose | Dr. Britt Wray

Climate change and mental health: In this episode with Dr. Britt Wray , scientist, award-winning communicator, and Director of CIRCLE at Stanford Psychiatry, we meet one of the most vital voices at the intersection of climate leadership and emotional wellbeing amidst our planetary crisis. Together, we explore how to navigate anxiety, grief, denial (even numbness!) and the longing for meaning. Can we find courage and purpose in the face of ecological loss?How do we metabolize despair into collective care and responsibility?What does emotional resilience look like when the future itself feels unstable?Britt’s work invites us to turn toward our pain to recognize that feeling deeply may be the first step toward acting wisely.p.s. you are not alone!
