Introductions and welcome

Where are we heading into the midterms?

Find agency by doing something with your hands

Maximize impact and connection by going local

Talk to young people for a dose of hope

In victory, defeat or doubt, don’t go it alone

In victory, defeat or doubt (cont’d)

Who do you want to be after the election?

How do I fortify myself against fear?

Protect your rhythms and find your anchors

Keep engaging and give yourself credit

How can I take charge of my news diet?

Moni and April make some midterm resolutions

Closing and credits

How do you get through a midterm season this tense with your integrity intact, whatever the results bring? Moni and April Lawson, your politically red and blue co-hosts, bring a survival guide: practical, evidence-backed tips for the anxiety, distrust, and exhaustion so many of us are carrying into this election.

Don’t go it alone, whether in victory, defeat, or uncertainty. Decide who you’ll be the day after the election. Go local, where twice as many Americans say democracy is working. And learn the one question to ask after every political story you read, the one that helps you take your attention back. Whatever this election brings, you have more power than you think.
