Dealing With Illness | Prevention, Management & Recovery
About this episode
Juan's back baby ..... and with a baby!!!
In Episode #389 of 'Musings', Juan & I discuss: my latest contracting of Covid (most likely), why there are 3 big babies in these parts, general preventions we take to avoid getting sick, psychological tricks to reduce the suffering, recent changes that have made us less selfish and a new test of the Boostagram Lounge at the end.
Huge support from McIntosh, Chris Fisher & the double from Petar! Massive appreciation to these early adopters.
