Weird, isn’t it?
We have more therapy than ever. More medications than ever. More awareness than ever. We’ve broken free from the stigma of the past — and yet, mental health struggles of every kind are still rising. In some ways, you could argue we’re worse off than before the so-called mental health revolution even started.
Maybe this is your story, or someone close to you. You’ve done all the right things, and yet somehow, it’s still not working. Mental health content floods your feed, but it’s become white noise. You’re tired of grifters, tired of quick fixes, tired of the same recycled slogans.
It’s clear the mental health revolution of the 2010s didn’t deliver what we hoped. But the real question is: why? What are we missing?
To find out, we brought together what you might call the Avengers of mental health — a one-of-a-kind team-up with three of the most influential voices in the world.
At Columbia University, Dr. Lisa Miller has shown how spirituality and mental health are inseparable. At Stanford University, Dr. Anna Lembke has exposed how addiction and new technologies are hijacking the brain. And at Harvard University, Dr. Uma Naidoo has established the gut-brain connection, revealing how what we eat shapes how we feel.
They come from the world’s most prestigious institutions. They’re all bestselling authors, recognized globally. And each brings a missing piece of the puzzle.
Together, they give us the whole story of mental health.
This is the first time these voices have come together — a rare chance to hear from the people who have shaped the global conversation on mental health, all in one place. When you put these pieces together, you’ll see a path forward that’s hopeful, practical, and actually produces real change.
