    β€œAustralia πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί+COVID19 = Fully F*cked.” Great guest! Laurence McIntyre let’s us know how β€œmad” it is

    COVID19 in Australia is unbelievable. Imagine several β€œlockdowns”? How about the latest lockdown at 300 days w\only one hour of outdoor activity. And you’re not allowed to meet & talk with your neighbors AND you’re not allowed to drive past 3-miles away from your home… (if you are not vaccinated, you are STILL in lockdown) Authoritarian police are power crazy; no protest are allowed, no rights to guns, or maze/pepper spray. Australia πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί is experiencing unbelievable Sunk Cost Fallacy. According to Laurence, their leaders are dictating how Aussies live. And so much more…

MFG Episode Ramon Ruiz

Mental health and music; some of my favorite conversations! Great listening to this episode Sharon and your guest was a easy flow talker and he hit major points; being patient with yourself is I believe he said regarding working on your projects and things. As a creator myself, I get it!

It’s s great to see someone in his position discuss what his profession in social work is and what one does in it; I respect social workers so much! They help people out so much!

Being creative is therapeutic and it helps others who sees and/or sees your artistic work βœοΈπŸŽΆπŸŽ¨πŸ’ƒπŸŽ€
Thanks for doing this interview Sharon! πŸ™
Everything that you have done, it always showed how much hard work you’ve put into it and continue doing! πŸ€—
