21m · PG-ish · 23 Jan 09:00

If you’re like me and find the mind-body connection fascinating, this episode is for you. Today’s clip features Dr. Gabor Mate, a physician, speaker, and author specializing in childhood development, trauma, and the potential life-long impacts of both physical and mental well-being.

His talk explores stress, disease, family, and social and cultural foundations, including the role of women in American society. While our culture separates physical, mental, and emotional health, Dr. Mate explains how research shows the relationship between them, and why social connection may actually lead to less physical symptoms and disease.
