Annie needs to clear her throat. Annoying voice to listen to.

Jazz&Blues1017

Shame on you for promoting the use of mushrooms in the middle of an episode where the client and coach are having a meaningful discussion on overcoming addiction to cannabis! While not the same, it is still irresponsible to tout the benefits of another substance for listeners who are making strides in behavioral and emotional changes substance free. Unfollowing this entire podcast.
