Omnia Podcast

The worldwide scale and scope of discontinuity, loss, and uncertainty has made the year of the pandemic like no other in recent memory. How are we processing this moment, and how do we move forward? In this episode, we talk to three students, who share how the COVID crisis has reshaped their undergraduate experience at Penn and their visions for the future. We also hear from a professor of English on the parallels between the traumas of the early 20th century and our current challenges, and an expert in the science of resilience offers her thoughts on coping with crisis.FEATURING:Omar Husni, C'22Samira Mehta, C'21James Nycz, C'21Karen Reivich, Director of Resilience and Positive Psychology Training Programs, Penn Positive Psychology CenterPaul Saint-Amour, Walter and Leonore C.
