As we enter May — which is Mental Health Awareness Month — it’s the perfect time to talk about recent findings about Gen Z. Multiple recent studies show that Gen Z has unprecedented levels of anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. In this episode, host Paula Felps sits down with Live Happy CEO and co-founder Deborah Heisz to talk about what’s causing this mental health crisis among young people and what we all can do about it.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What recent research shows us about Gen Z’s mental health.
- How social media and traditional media are contributing to the problem.
- Why it’s important to be aware of this mental health crisis.
