About this listen

Most of us think heart health is all about diet, exercise, and genetics. But what if your relationships, stress levels, and emotional connections are playing a much bigger role than you realize?

In this powerful episode of Healthy YOU, Frankye Myers sits down with Dr. Britany Thompson, vascular surgeon with Riverside Vascular Specialists, to explore the hidden connection between emotional well-being and cardiovascular health. From chronic stress and loneliness to supportive relationships and strong social bonds, they unpack how the body responds physically to what we often label as “just stress.”
