Ted Audio Collective

Hello, I'm Chris Anderson, welcome to the Ted Interview, and the next episode in our

season of live streamed conversations.

Every weekday we're talking to some of the world's greatest minds who can offer us tools

to navigate this uncertain time.

Boy, we need that wisdom now more than ever.

I mean, these are times we'll probably remember for the rest of our lives, right?

And it's not like the battle is just the external battle, the battle against the virus.

The decisions our leaders make.

There's another battle as well that matters so much.

It's the battle going on right inside our minds.

Our guest today is Sison David, a psychologist who's here to help us navigate the many complicated

emotions this virus is provoking in us.

In fact, we thought you might benefit from ongoing advice from Sison as this time wears on.

So we just launched a new podcast with her called Checking In with Sison David.

Each week she gives strategies that can help people cope with this moment.

But I suspect it will be useful long after this moment passes, too.

So you can find it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or whatever you found this podcast.

Okay.

Now let's go over to the questioner in chief, my wonderful colleague, Ted's current

affairs curator, Whitney Pennington Rogers.

And for timing reasons, you'll hear this interview exactly as it was recorded.
