About this listen

In this episode of Essential Skills for Humaning, workforce development expert and host Christina Eanes sits down with Dr. Henry Venter, a licensed clinical psychologist and professor of psychology with over 25 years of clinical and teaching experience. Together, they dive into the growing phenomenon of doomscrolling — the compulsive consumption of negative news and content — and examine its harmful effects on our mental health, sense of connection, and overall well-being. Dr. Venter shares expert insights into why we’re drawn to doomscrolling, how it fuels feelings of anxiety and isolation, and most importantly, practical strategies to break the cycle and foster healthier habits for staying informed without becoming overwhelmed.
