In this powerful episode of The Eco Mindset Podcast, host Alex Tyrrell speaks with Dr. Sarah Lalonde, a Canadian emergency physician who recently returned from Gaza. Dr. Lalonde shares her firsthand account of the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Palestine—from hospital bombings to the treatment of children, trauma victims, and released prisoners.

She also recounts the 2015 killing of 17-year-old Dania Ershad, which shaped her path toward medical solidarity and activism.
