In this episode of Calm Your Caveman, Dr. Twitchell discusses how to cope when life feels overwhelming and the sky seems like it's falling. She shares personal experiences, including a story about a severe ocean threat to their home in Brazil, to emphasize how hyperfocus on an immediate problem can be beneficial. However, she also addresses what to do when the threats are out of our control. This involves an interview with her father, who shares his practical advice on how to manage large-scale issues by focusing on smaller, controllable actions within one's local community. The episode concludes with insights on the importance of small actions for maintaining hope and agency in challenging times.
