In this thought-provoking episode of Thrive with Us, Dr. Sarah Rasmi & Dr. Lara Foresi explore the concept of a palliative society—a world where distractions and consumption help us avoid pain and discomfort. From social media scrolling to retail therapy and even substance use, we're surrounded by ways to escape. But why do we numb our emotions instead of facing them? And what are the long-term consequences of avoiding discomfort? Join us as we dive into the psychology of escapism, the societal forces that encourage it, and healthier ways to cope with life's challenges. Listen now and start your journey toward greater emotional resilience. This podcast is not a substitute for mental health advice or treatment.
