A leading physician, speaker, and author of five international bestsellers in a conversation about psychological trauma, parenthood, and the power of the human will, with Afroditi Panagiotakou, Artistic Director of the Onassis Foundation.

How does anxiety manifest physically? How are childhood traumas healed? And why have we normalized the wrong values?
Dr. Gabor Mate comes to Stegi to speak about everything we dare not touch: the anxiety that becomes illness, the childhood traumas we carry for a lifetime, the values that make us sick without us realizing it. The Main Stage transforms into a space of care and honesty through a conversation between Dr. Gabor Mate and the Artistic Director of the Onassis Foundation, Afroditi Panagiotakou.

A physician, best-selling author, and internationally sought-after speaker, Mate has dedicated his life to understanding psychological trauma, childhood, parenthood, addiction, chronic stress, and ADHD.

Through his method, Compassionate Inquiry, he has inspired thousands of mental health professionals to help people reconnect with their bodies and emotions.
