We begin today with a conversation about stress. It’s part and parcel of all of our lives. And while the downside effects of stress are readily apparent: worry, anxiety, insomnia. Is there an upside to stress?
Dr. Leigh Vinocur thinks that by reframing what stress is and managing it correctly, we can turn stress into a force for good.
Dr. Leigh knows a thing or two about stress. She’s an Emergency Room physician and a TV commentator who has worked as an advisor in the corporate and healthcare sectors as well.

Dr. Leigh Vinocur will be discussing her book Tuesday night at the Ivy Bookshop. She’ll be in conversation with Sloane Brown of the Baltimore Sun and the Daily Record. That event begins tonight at 6:00pm. For more details, click here.
