This week on the podcast, Beth interviews her colleague, Laurie Ellington, about a topic we can all relate to experiencing daily: STRESS!  Are you totally stressed out?  Learn more about the science behind mind-body medicine in this week's podcast!

With over 23 years of experience in coaching, training, consulting, leadership, facilitation, and mind/body medicine Laurie is co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Zero Point Leadership and is among the pioneers who recognize that we change the world by harnessing the power of the connection between the heart and mind. Combining findings from modern neuroscience, mind-body research, stress resilience, mindfulness, and flow she helps individuals, teams and organizations change the way they think, feel, and show up in the world.
