Summary:

In this episode I talk to Mary Wingo about stress and what causes it. We get into some of the top considerations with regard to what you can do to manage and understand stress.

Mary Wingo was born in the United States where she earned a Ph.D. in human stress research from The University of North Texas. In 2014, She emigrated to Ecuador, a tiny country in South America.

Living in a new and very different society opened her eyes to the unsustainable social, economic, and political costs preventable stress causes in the modern world.

Dr. Wingo's aim is to clearly explain to the public the biological mechanisms behind the stress response, as well as its staggering costs to society.
