• Choice words from Chris Evans
• Emma Stone’s take on anxiety
• “The Yellow Wallpaper“, a short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, whose post-partum depression led others to classify her as hysterical and dismiss her experience as invalid. She was inspired to write the story by the way others treated her during her depression, and she was a straight up OG feminist who divorced her first husband at a time when no one did that. She was AWESOME.
• Stress expert Brad Stulberg, whose journey is really interesting and who totally ets panic attacks.
