Description

How can we survive MAGA without completely disengaging? In this episode, Alaina and Chris meet with Psychotherapist Jay Karr to unpack our individual choices to either speak out against MAGA or stay silent. The three also discuss how to navigate individual responsibility vs. corporate responsibility.

The conversation also touches on the challenges of discussing politics in personal and professional settings, the impact of fear on self-expression, and the necessity of creative outlets. If you're feeling conflicted about your role (professionally and personally) within the current political climate – this episode is for you.
