In this bonus episode, these two Gen Z women discuss the "I" in I-gen and pause to reflect on the areas that they may need to examine and change to improve their mental health. Our Director of Content and engineering student at Texas A&M University, Liliana Hildebrand exclaims, "Dang...she was speaking about my people." Liliana's reaction is to Dr. Crystal Tran's knowledgeable assessment in our most recent WISEcast episode "Pan-Depression. Conquering the Mental Health Pandemic (Part 2)". Dr. Tran is an expert in Developmental Psychology and Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience. She shared with us research on resilience and the extrinsic and intrinsic factors that are at play in the mental health of our youth. Liliana is joined in this episode by our marketing intern Tahmina Fayezi, a high school student, who is motivated to author her own STEM career journey.
