The EWB podcast is back after a summer hiatus with a brand new episode. This episode features a special guest, Winta Desta, a Canadian - Eritrean physiotherapist. Winta shares from her experience and expertise as a practitioner in physiotherapy and sports. We also get insight into Winta's community engagement through her own platform MayeHealth which provides health education for Eritreans in both English and Tigrinya. If you're looking to expand your definition of wellbeing, inspiration to move your body more or if you deal with a lot of physical pain that might affect your wellbeing then this episode is for you.

In this episode we talk about:

- Wellbeing and movement/exercise as a lifestyle
