5.2 A Chat with Dr. Deborah Sloboda on Wellness, Work-Life and Early Origins Science

The Global Health Collective - With a Local Edge

Don’t sweat the small stuff and focus on doing your best, even in the worst case scenario. In this episode, we are joined with positive energy from Dr. Deb Sloboda who is a researcher, professor at McMaster University, and one of the founding Co-Presidents of the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease Society of Canada. Her work involves understanding the impact of early life adversity on the mother, and the developing fetus and how fetal adaptations to adversity influence the risk of chronic disease later in life. Join us in a discussion about work-life integration, the incorporation of acts of service and fostering healthy relationships to promote well-being.
