Speaker 1: I'm Katie Curic, and I'm back with a new season
Speaker 1: of my podcast Next Question. You know, we've been through
Speaker 1: a lot over the past few years. I developed anxiety
Speaker 1: and depression. I became a little more like agueraphobic. I
Speaker 1: didn't even want to leave the house. I don't know
Speaker 1: about you, but sometimes I feel like all I hear
Speaker 1: is bad news. Is always something, climate changing, wars, wealth
Speaker 1: of equality, anti semitism, racism, bad things happened fast forward.
Speaker 1: So on our new season of Next Question, We're going
Speaker 1: to try something a little different. We're talking about resilience,
Speaker 1: courage in the face of murgery, Digging deeper. I feel
Speaker 1: stronger I could still survive its finding strength with him.
Speaker 1: We're talking about how to look on the bright side
Speaker 1: when everything around you kind of sucks. We've been before.
Speaker 1: I like to call myself a hopeful nihilist. Do the
Speaker 1: best you kid. Hopefully we will calm down from all
Speaker 1: of this. Think of the show as a toolkit to
Speaker 1: help you navigate this crazy world we live in. We'll
Speaker 1: be helping you find ways to make you better at
Speaker 1: getting older, loving the body you have, talking to your teenager,
Speaker 1: finding the real keys to happiness, handling getting sacked managing
Speaker 1: technology twenty four to seven and figuring out our modern
Speaker 1: media landscape. We're digging deep into something psychologists are now
Speaker 1: calling post traumatic growth, or as some of you told us,
Speaker 1: embracing the good and bad. Focus on those things that
Speaker 1: are within your control, and you'll do better. I'll be
Speaker 1: talking to some pretty amazing guests. Some you'll know, some
Speaker 1: you may not, but all of them will have stories
Speaker 1: that will teach all of us to bounce back, regroup,
Speaker 1: and live better. We all need to give ourselves a
Speaker 1: little bit more grace and a little bit more forgiveness.
Speaker 1: Are you go through an awful, terrible incident that you
Speaker 1: never would have wished on yourself or anyone else, and
Speaker 1: some good comes from that. Cynicism and optimism sort of
Speaker 1: are dance partners in my brain. I'm going to give
Speaker 1: optimism the lead, as I always do, because the alternative
Speaker 1: isn't as pleasant. You're going to look back and regret
Speaker 1: those times in your life that you didn't fully get
Speaker 1: to live because you were so worried about what do
Speaker 1: you look like? And by the way, what are you
Speaker 1: all curious about? What do you want to ask me?
Speaker 1: What is the biggest struggle that she has had as
Speaker 1: a woman. I hope you're doing well. How she has
Speaker 1: overcome a lot of her obstacles in life and remained
Speaker 1: so adorable and full of joy. Ah shucks. I had
Speaker 1: the nicest listeners, you know. I'm really excited for us
Speaker 1: to explore all these things together. That's all lean up
Speaker 1: on this season of Next Question with Me Katie Curik.
