About this episode
In this fun episode, we explore how stressful life events like financial strain or
relationship conflicts can affect your life satisfaction and whether these life events are
just a matter of bad luck, or partly your parents’ fault? Professor Ragnhild Bang Nes
of the Norwegian Institute of Public Health shares insights from a unique twin study
that untangles life experiences from biology. Tune in to discover how genes and
environment work together to shape how we feel, and why not all bad life events
impacts us the same way!
