Worried about the Coronavirus? Luckily, Emily has a background in public health and can explain it.

This is an episode for people who aren’t at high risk, to talk about why and how they can help make the world safer for people who are at risk.

Spoiler warning: Wash your hands.

PS: Edited to add when Emily listened to this mini-episode, she realized they didn’t make it crystal clear that it’s not just age but also health issues that make people vulnerable. People of any age can have respiratory issues, diabetes or cardiovascular disease, all three of which are known to increase severity of symptoms if a person gets COVID-19.

Health at Every Size

Gratitude is important. But just because we’ve come a long way, it doesn’t mean we’re close to where we need to be. Emily and Amelia discuss.

FSP2020 episode 5: What's your something larger?

Nichole’s Gratitude on Medium.

Amelia is a huge Brandon Sanderson fan.

We're white ladies. We know we're not going to say anything that people of color don't already know. We're going to make mistakes. But we're going to try our best.

It's the inevitable politics episode. Amelia is an idealist. Emily's a pragmatist. But guess what? They both want to do the right thing.

Amelia takes the lead on this one. How does creative self-expression help you complete the stress response cycle? (Hint: It has to do with recognizing that emotions are real.)
