Gen Z talks about mental health more than any generation before—but most of what we hear online is incomplete, unproven, or impractical. She Persisted bridges that gap. Hosted by Sadie Sutton, a 22-year-old UPenn psychology grad who’s lived the struggle and now studies the science, each episode turns proven psychology and personal insight into clear, relatable steps—making mental health make sense.
