Host Ben Adair is joined by Dr. Rebecca Sinclair and Dr. Will Osei from Brooklyn Minds to hear from parents and adult children moving back in together. Plus, our hosts discuss potential vacation plans and other tools on how to assess risks when planning. The tips for this week? Try different strategies for what works for you and your family when the feeling of uncertainty comes in, such as taking a walk, a breath, or creating a routine. Young adults, who may be going through the concept of learned helplessness, can dig into what matters to them and apply small actions.
