Navigating The US - Iran war from Dubai | Mo Gawdat & Alice Law

Description

In this episode, we talk about the current situation between the US and Iran and what it means for the future, as well as the wider uncertainty and tension many people are feeling globally. We also explore how to manage stress in these uncertain times, and how to navigate the constant flow of information we are receiving from the news, learning how to filter what is actually helpful and what only adds to overwhelm and anxiety. Join us as we sit down with Mo Gawdat and Alice Law to discuss what the future may hold, and more importantly, how we can stay grounded within ourselves while everything around us feels unpredictable. Together, they guide us through how we process crisis, how we respond to overwhelm, and how we begin to take back control of our internal state even when external circumstances feel uncertain.
