This episode of the Bold Beautiful Borderline podcast covers Laurie's experiences of mental distress during the 2021 BC Floods that have caused significant climate related destruction in her city.
Pre-traumatic stress is a newer concept that is often referenced in relation to climate change but can clearly be applied to other social issues we are all living through.
