Show Notes

Opening your eyes to the immensity of the climate crisis can be incredibly frightening. So it’s no coincidence that climate-related anxiety and distress are on the rise. Turns out there’s a term for these feelings: eco-anxiety. In this episode, Arielle explores how naming, accepting, and understanding our eco-anxiety – and all sorts of eco-emotions for that matter – may be a critical component of making it through ecological catastrophe.


They speak with Britt Wray, author of the forthcoming book, Generation Dread: Finding Purpose In An Age of Climate Crisis, climate activist Jennifer Uchendu, and climate psychotherapist Caroline Hickman.
