MYCROECONOMICS | MIND:SET - Awareness, Coping, and Treatment of Mental Health During Quarantine

ONE:

We were never meant to be cooped up like we all currently are... as you probably know, it takes a toll on our state of mind. Business professionals are stressed from the loss of revenue, layoffs, and uncertainty... marriages and relationships are near the breaking point, and students are missing out on some critical life experiences vital to their futures.

We discuss who is most at risk, what to look out for, and how best to cope during these challenging times.

Listen to a host of experts as we take a deep dive into uncharted waters. Our guest include the Head of Psychiatry at Columbia Medical, the founders of Post Acute Recovery, the Director for the Center and Program on Domestic Violence at CDV Denver, and the Founder of Speakers for Change.
