Personal Experience: The importance of lifestyle changes and putting yourself first
I see this episode as a useful toolbox for anyone who would like to have a look at their lifestyle and the importance of setting boundaries and putting yourself first.
Those were important steps in Leah's journey, besides having to fix gut issues to battle various health issues she was facing among them CFS.
