Description

Stress. Anxiety. Overwhelm.

In this candid conversation, our Gen X, Y and Z come together to share how they actually cope (or don't) with the pressure of modern life. From doom scrolling and deep breathing to counting backwards from 5 and using the alphabet, we explore what works - and what doesn't.

We unpack the strategies that help us deflect, distract and diffuse stress, and how our generational perspectives shape our responses to anxiety. Whether you're feeling frazzled or just curious, this episode is a comforting, honest reminder that you're not alone.
