Today we spoke about many things Guest-less. Dan had a bit of a residual annoying cough but the conversation meandered around corrections Canada and the issues that are present. We discussed what we can do to make a better system and how the current system is ineffective. Scott discussed his 12 hour walk and that led to the November mens mental health month. Time to change time to heal.
RESOURCES:
November is Men’s Health Awareness Month and an opportunity to join in healthy, vulnerable conversations to better wellness.
