This week I take you on a journey through the land of rabies. This is big bad virus you don't want.
I'm sure Jenna Geise never wanted it either but through a medical team that thought outside the box, she became the girl who lived.

This week we go back to the year 2014, do you remember it fondly? Well for some people in Texas, it would be the year that was unforgettable.

This week I had the privilege of being joined by the best selling author Gabrielle Glaser.
We discuss why AA doesn't work for some, zoning in more so on why it doesn't work for women specifically and the alternative therapies and methods that exist for those grappling with alcohol use disorder.
It's an episode to close out your year that might make you go "hmmm"
