About this episode
The 7 team is off for Memorial Day so we're bringing you a conversation our colleague Elahe Izadi had recently that we've been thinking about a lot. It digs into how to manage what we can't control as the world can feel increasingly uncertain.
Elahe sat down with Tara Brach, a therapist with a PhD in clinical psychology who has also spent years studying Buddhism and mindfulness. Tara teaches meditation, and she’s written several books including one called “Radical Acceptance: Embracing Your Life With the Heart of a Buddha.”
If you’re interested in learning more about her work or accessing her podcast and meditations, you can find that here.
This episode was produced by Emma Talkoff and mixed by Sam Bair. It was edited by Maggie Penman.
