This week Jeremy talks with Hatie Parmeter, soon-to-be licensed therapist and current communications director for the Climate Psychology Alliance of North America, about her journey from fashion journalism and outdoor guiding to finally landing in mental health. They explore the mental wellness needs of guides and first responders, the idea that connection is the correction, and the overlap of climate anxiety, systemic issues, and mutual aid. The conversation closes with both reflecting on self-care, neurodivergence, and finding meaning and community amid climate grief and late-stage capitalism.
