🪱 Cultivating Compassion in Polycrisis — Preparedness & Self-Publishing with Kailea Loften & Kate Weiner

Today I’m thrilled to have Kailea Rose Loften and Kate Rose Weiner of Loam on the podcast to discuss their new book, Compassion in Crisis, which just came out with Heyday Books.

Together we have a gentle, honest, and deep conversation exploring:

• The meaning of ‘polycrisis’
• Why it’s important to think about preparedness
• Ways to prepare without slipping into hypervigilance (even if you’re an anxious person)
• The role social media plays in both community building and community surveillance
• Why we still turn to social media for resource sharing and rapid response
• The spread of misinformation & disinformation online during disasters
• Publishing as a way of getting ‘off the grid’
• Free Family Preparedness Information from Summer Starr
