How are you? How are you REALLY? Mind Wide Open is an award winning interview series that wants you to answer this question honestly, and to mean it when you ask others. Created and hosted by 20-year-old Lily Cornell Silver, this series seeks to destigmatize conversations around mental health, grief, trauma, suicide, and more. Launched in honor of Lily's dad, the late Chris Cornell (Soundgarden/Audioslave), Mind Wide Open features guests from all walks of life, including mental health professionals, artists, authors, actors, and activists.

In the second edition of this special episode, Lily interviews a panel of six of her closest friends and peers to discuss what mental health looks like in their generation. They dive into the unique pressures they face within their age group, intergenerational trauma, social media, anxiety, depression, and diverse personal stories and experiences. An episode full of radical vulnerability and profound self-reflection, this conversation is illuminating for listeners of all ages.
