In this excerpt from his new book, GOOD STRESS, Jeff reminds us that health, in all of its expressions, arises from balance.

Mohsen underscores empathy as the foundation of his work, especially in understanding others' perspectives, including Israelis and Jews, despite the challenging circumstances.

In this conversation with Jeff from last fall, Mohsen shares his story of growing up in a...
