There has been so much senseless violence, loss and grief and many folks are just trying to work their way through all of it.\n\nEven in my own life, in the past six months, I've lost three of my Aunties, and three of my furry kids. Let me tell you, it has been a season.\n\nI also know people who\u2019ve lost their homes or have been kicked out of their homes, and I\u2019ve heard of others whose rents have doubled overnight. The stories are just heart-wrenching and it sometimes feels like the world has lost its ever-loving mind. \n\nThe question that often comes up in my work with others is, \u201cWhat can I, as one individual person, really do to help change things?\u201d. \n\nTo this I say, \u201cWhile we can\u2019t change the world, what we can do is change ourselves, our minds, our perspectives and choose how we respond to what is happening in the world.\u201d\n\nToday on The Karen Kenney Show, we\u2019re talking about how much there\u2019s going on in the world, and how that can leave people feeling hopeless or helpless, or like you\u2019re being left in the dark without a clue on what to do.\n\nMy goal for this episode is to share a few of the helpful tools that I\u2019ve used when it comes to navigating through some of the \u201ccolossal shit shows\u201d that seem to happen in our world.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/22c50850-e75c-4734-b25e-87faf90de9ff/2026-Podcast-Artwork-512KB.jpg"}
