In this episode, we get to chat with clinical psychologist, eclipse chaser, and community planner extraordinaire, Dr. Kate Russo. She is a native of Queensland, Australia and has authored pioneering books on the psychology of total solar eclipses including Total Addiction and Being In The Shadow.
Our conversation will be split into 2 episodes as we dive into the "ineffable" wonder of totality. How do you describe an experience for which there are no words? Dr. Kate shares her approach to researching this very concept.
