About Being... Gen Z (with Kris Walters)

Dear Media
About this episode

“ Mental health can be all consuming but having a community helps a lot.”


We’ve all heard that Gen Z is more focused on their mental health than any other generation but why? In this chat, we get to hear from my 23-year-old daughter Kris, who shares some of the struggles faced by Gen Z, particularly around mental health, societal pressures, and workplace challenges.


Kris opens up about her recent mental health issues, the anxiety faced by undocumented friends, and the impact of political and social climates on her generation. She explains why her and her friends are so focused on community and if they are interested in pursuing “The American Dream.”


And friend, don’t miss the part when I ask Kris about a new dating app and she completely shuts me down!


With any chat, it's important for us to listen with an open mind and heart. Thank you to Kris for opening up about her world and thank YOU for being here to learn and listen.
