When Life Has Other Plans with Maya Shankar

In hard seasons, it’s easy to believe “I’ll feel this way forever.” Dr. Becky and cognitive scientist Maya Shankar explore the moments that upend us, the anxiety of not knowing what comes next, and why we underestimate our ability to adapt. Together, they discuss how reconnecting to what matters most can bring steadiness during uncertainty.
