You probably know Election Day is this Tuesday – and it’s stressing people out. A recent survey found 70% of Americans are feeling election-related anxiety, with even more worried about the country’s future.
But what can you do to manage that stress?
Today, we’re joined by Dan Harris, former ABC News anchor, who famously experienced a live, on-air panic attack that sent him on a journey into meditation and mindfulness. Dan’s here to share practical, actionable steps to help ease election-related anxiety — and offer tips for living a calmer, more balanced life.
Maybe his advice will make you feel 10% Happier (also the name of his popular podcast and best-selling book).

Guest: Dan Harris
Dan Harris spent 21 years as an anchor and correspondent at ABC News, where he hosted Nightline and the weekend editions of Good Morning America. He also spent years in the field, covering combat, natural disasters, and presidential campaigns. After having an on-air panic attack, he turned to meditation, which he always thought was for robed gurus and unwashed hippies. In 2014, he published the #1 New York Times bestselling book, 10% Happier. In 2016, he launched the 10% Happier podcast. It now has over 600 episodes and regularly ranks among the top 200 shows globally. You can find Dan and sign up for his Substack on his website.
