I’m CEO of my health and I’m tired. I crave inspiration. I need a recharge. Several weeks ago, I recorded a conversation with Amy Faeskorn. I appreciate the Improv lesson Amy teaches here about the ‘yes and’ approach to best health, sprinkled with lessons from homeschooling. I feel better already.

About the Show
Welcome to Health Hats, learning on the journey toward best health. I am Danny van Leeuwen, a two-legged, old, cisgender, white man with privilege, living in a food oasis, who can afford many hats and knows a little about a lot of healthcare and a lot about very little. Most people wear hats one at a time, but I wear them all at once.  We will listen and learn about what it takes to adjust to life's realities in healthcare’s Tower of Babel.  Let's make some sense of all this.

The Show
Introducing Amy Faeskorn
I feel weary. Weary of national politics and the giant steps backward we’re taking in climate resilience. Weary of research studies, weary of social media, weary of stories, weary of managing life with chronic illness. I’m CEO of my health, and I’m tired. I’m on vacation and in a dip. Please, I crave inspiration. I need a recharge. Several weeks ago, I recorded a conversation with Amy Faeskorn. I’m just now getting around to listening to and editing that recording.
