Shrinking Heads - Episode 19 - The Mental Health Jungle: Shutdown Edition
Season 1 Episode 17
This week on Shrinking Heads, we grab our machetes and head straight into the dense emotional jungle created by the government shutdown. With vines of uncertainty, quicksand pits of stress, the distant calls of budgetary chaos echoing through the canopy, and host Shannon still on sabbatical, join Elizabeth as she explores how all this political turbulence takes a real toll on mental health. Luckily, guest host Scott swings in to help us navigate the underbrush—part guide, part fellow explorer, and fully aware that even the steadiest minds can trip over unexpected roots. Join us as we chart a path through shutdown-induced anxiety, highlight the survival tools we all need, and remind you that no one—therapists included—gets through the jungle without a few bumps and bruises.
