Feeling like there's a gap between generations these days? You're not alone. In this episode of 'Road to Recovery', Yonah Budd dives into the 'generation chasm' and why today's youth often feel disconnected and unlucky. But that's just the beginning.

It's a conversation that might make you rethink traditional parenting methods.
The episode takes another compelling turn when Yonah is joined by Rachel Bromberg, co-founder of Reach Out Response Network.

Imagine a world where mental health crises are met with care and understanding rather than sirens and flashing lights. Yonah's discussions are not just about identifying problems but also about finding solutions and fostering empathy.
