Join us as we dive into Gen Z coping strategies with host Nicholete Leanza and therapist, professor, and mom Sarah Yanosy. We explore the unique ways this generation handles stress—whether it’s “bathroom camping” between classes, grabbing a Diet Coke for a quick reset, living in cozy clothes, sweating it out at the gym, taking late-night drives with the music up, clicking “add to cart,” or scrolling endlessly through social feeds. Sarah breaks down which of these habits can actually be helpful and which ones might do more harm than good. She also offers healthier swaps that go beyond quick fixes—like leaning on real friendships, getting outside in nature, setting boundaries that actually stick, and reaching out for professional support when needed. This conversation shines a light on what Gen Z is really up against, how they’re rewriting the rules of self-care, and why community, gratitude, and intentional mental breaks matter now more than ever.
