Podcast Spotlight
This week's spotlight is on the Well + Good podcast. Well + Good is a digital wellness platform that helps decode and demystify what it means to live a well life, inside and out. I'm loving this newer podcast because it presents a 360 view on health, and is aimed at helping to clear out the clutter and noise that often comes along with views on health. If you wanna learn about what makes us feel better, why we should move our bodies, and the true damaging nature of diet culture, take a listen to this pod!
This week’s podcast spotlight comes from Maya Rubin, EarBuds’ newsletter & podcast coordinator
