Many of us have been facing increasing levels of political anxiety in the past days and weeks. It seems that the world has never been more divisive and polarised and there is a lot that we are uncertain and fearful of. In today’s episode we talk about how we can acknowledge that the future feels scary, but still find an internal sense of safety and peace, including:
I know this time feels very scary and uncertain but I hope this tiny slice of the internet makes you feel safe and seen, love Jemma.

0:00.0 | Hello everybody. Welcome back to the show. Welcome back to the podcast. New listeners, old listeners, |
0:07.6 | wherever you are in the world, it is so great to have you here back for another episode as we, of course, |
0:13.4 | break down the very important psychology of our 20s. I'm going to cut straight to the chase. |
0:20.6 | Today, we're going to be talking about |
0:22.4 | political anxiety and political uncertainty, something that I think we could all do with some more |

1:37.5 | peace within the turmoil of our 20s and beyond. And I think a lot of us need that right now. |
1:44.1 | There is something very specific on a lot of our mindss and beyond. And I think a lot of us need that right now. There is something very specific |
1:45.9 | on a lot of our minds that is increasing that turmoil. You know, there is a lot of angst. There is a lot of |
1:51.6 | stress, anxiety to do with what the future holds after the outcome of this election, but also |
