The Overthinker's Guide to Joy with Jackie de Crinis | Maui Fires: What Maui Needs & How to Help

Ep #77: Maui Fires: What Maui Needs & How to Help

August 16, 2023

I generally don’t discuss current events on the podcast, usually sticking to overcoming overthinking and talking about problems that come up in my work as a coach. However, as a resident of the island of Maui, Hawaii, and the recent wildfire crisis engulfing this beautiful place, I need to do something a little different.

This isn’t just a natural disaster anymore. This is an ongoing crisis and a serious issue on every level: physical, psychological, and human life-or-death level. This is something I’m dealing with as a member of this community, along with many others. I’m using my platform to discuss my experience of this tragedy, update others so they can expand their knowledge on the subject, and say thank you to everyone dedicating themselves to the relief efforts.

Tune in this week to discover the reality of the current situation with the Maui brushfires. There is much more to this situation than what you’ll see on the news or read in the headlines. I’m sharing how you can contribute to the rebuilding effort, and what the people and the island of Maui need during this time.
