  1. Number 1: Healing After Disaster: The Resilience Legacy of 9/11

    As the world approaches the 25th anniversary of September 11th, 2001, our show examines what happened that day, and the psychological impact that followed—along with the lessons we’ve learned about trauma, recovery, and resilience. We’re joined on this episode by Dr. Craig Katz, a psychiatrist at Mount Sinai whose work has put him on ther front lines of disaster relief. He helped organize New York City’s psychiatric response following 9/11, through an organization he co-founded called Disaster Psychiatry Outreach. On this episode, Dr. Katz discusses what disasters can do to our mental health, why their effects can last for years, and what 9/11 has taught us about helping individuals and communities recover.

  2. Number 2: A Day in the Life of an ER Doc

    Every day, emergency departments see people on some of the hardest days of their lives. In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with Dr. Nicholas Gavin, an emergency physician at Mount Sinai, about what it really means to work in the emergency department. Dr. Gavin offers a simple but powerful perspective on resilience: it is a muscle that can be strengthened. By looking back at how we have navigated adversity before, we can draw on those experiences to face whatever comes next.

  3. Number 3: Breaking Free From Depression

    Depression is often mistaken for ordinary sadness, but clinically it is something profoundly different: a medical illness that can alter the way the brain processes emotion, motivation, and even hope itself. In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with James Murrough, MD, PhD, to discuss how groundbreaking neuroimaging research explains why depression may leave the brain "entrapped" in inefficient patterns of activity, The conversation explores the difference between sadness and clinical depression, why chronic stress can reshape the brain, how behavioral therapy and medication help people break free from depression's grip, and why the brain's extraordinary capacity for change offers genuine reason for hope.

  4. Number 4: Your Brain is Tough

    Resilience isn't just a personality trait—it's something the brain actively builds. In this episode of Road to Resilience, host Stephen Calabria speaks with Eric J. Nestler, MD, PhD, one of the world's foremost neuroscientists, about the remarkable capacity of the brain to adapt in the face of adversity. Drawing on decades of groundbreaking research into depression, addiction, and stress, Dr. Nestler explains why trauma doesn't affect everyone the same way, how resilience is shaped by both biology and experience, and what science is revealing about the brain's extraordinary ability to recover and change. The episode explores why supportive relationships matter, how chronic stress alters the brain, whether resilience can be cultivated at any age, and the everyday habits that can help strengthen our minds throughout life.
