In this week’s episode of The One Last Thought Podcast, we are joined by Stacy-Ann Buchanan, and Bj Fletcher. Unbeknownst to them, they were both sharing thoughts about healing oneself, and how important it is to take the time to do the hard work that is involved in healing, but to also remember that time, if squandered, can simply leave you behind.
