Turning The Tide On Climate Anxiety
We sat down with psychologist Megan Kennedy Woodard and co-author of Turning The Tide on Climate Anxiety in our latest episode of The Oona Series Podcast.
Boniface digs in deep with the question ‘How do you change your habits and feelings involved in ‘knowing’ yet still not ‘doing’ what you should in changing yourself and planet for the better.
Years ago, Megan met her ‘patient zero’ with anxiety sourcing from the worry and care for the state of the planet. Many more soon followed and she saw there was real need for Climate Anxiety support, but the coping resources and actions to put in place simply weren't available. Working with people, corporations and nonprofits, Megan now provides insight and focus on how to understand the mental impact and what to do when faced with the anxiety of climate change.

Do You Live To Work or Work To Live?
Our compassionate Oona Series co-founder, Boniface, is back with a fresh podcast to pose the question, Are you engaged by your work or consumed by it? We live in a world where we are only beginning to heal from our addiction to high performance and high achievement. Let’s put our cards out on the table and connect together for this challenge so many of us mutually face in our life and career.
Take a page of wisdom from Oona Series Co-Founder, Catie, to grasp the reality that it is a juggle and it is never balanced.
‘I find joy in the chaos…but you have to find your boundaries. When I notice I am lacking in motivation or hearing the voices of self doubt that are constant, its again reaching into your back pockets, and how I do that is I tap into conversations that I know I have safety in my voice, safety in hearing critiques back from somebody I feel I trust and can give me some clear perspective because we do need that.’
