Summary

On this week's episode of Networth and Chill, it's all about mental health with Dr. Sue Varma, a a board certified psychiatrist and the author of Practical Optimism. These days, talking about mental health and therapy is seen as trendy, and honestly it's for good reason. We are constantly facing stressful situations in our day-to-day lives, and it can be hard to push away negative mindsets. Dr. Sue Varma has years of experience helping people work through trauma and other mental health issues, as well as being a mental health contributor for TV and radio. I want to know how wealth affects our mental state, and find out the science behind "positive thinking" and "optimistic mindsets". We take a look at how these things can change our lives for the better, and what small things we can incorporate into our days to alleviate our anxious brains.
