In this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, Dr. Gabor Maté discusses how childhood trauma and emotional stress shape brain development and contribute to conditions like ADHD, addiction, and autoimmune diseases. He challenges the idea that these issues are purely genetic, linking them instead to early experiences of emotional disconnection. Dr. Maté also critiques the overuse of medication and emphasizes the need to address root causes through self-awareness, emotional healing, and supportive relationships.
