Leishmaniasis: A Love Letter To A Flesh Eating Parasite by Pip Stewart

Leishmaniasis: A Love Letter To A Flesh Eating Parasite | Pip Stewart

Journalist, poet and presenter Pip Stewart found herself in a relationship with a flesh-eating parasite, leishmaniasis, after a world-first, 2.5 month, paddling expedition through dense Amazon jungle. A firm believer that everyone, and everything, can teach you something, Pip advocates the power of listening to achieve genuine, meaningful connection to better understand yourself, others and the natural world around you. In this TEDx talk, she educates us about flesh-eating parasite that plagues many people around the world and encourages us to find compassion for the plights of others.
