Ep: 1872 Nicholas Freudenberg - Fighting For New York

Imagine New York City without the activists who fought for it. Wages stuck at the federal minimum. Police stop-and-frisk without public oversight. No public hospital system, no rent control, no free school lunch, no right to shelter. As Nicholas Freudenberg writes at the opening of Fighting for New York: it would be "a less healthy, less just, more polluted, and less safe place to live." The book's central argument is expansive: health is not just a medical issue. It is shaped by wages, housing, food access, policing, incarceration, and climate. Every fight for a more just city is, at its core, a fight for health. And history shows those fights can be won. He is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Public Health at the City University of New York School of Public Health.

Clinical psychologist Dr. Angélica Pérez-Litwin reveals why achievement never seems to be enough — and how to break the "Career Distress Response" cycle that traditional solutions fail to address. She has a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Fordham University, an MBA from Clemson University, and a BA from Columbia University. Her work has been featured by The Today Show, NPR, CNN, Forbes, PBS, and other national media outlets.
