About this episode

Week two of Wondermind’s Baggage Drop concludes with Dr. Howes reviewing all the ways we’ve found support over the last few episodes. He guides us all to reflect on our second week of growth with the help of voicemails and messages from other Baggage Drop listeners, and he’s created a custom worksheet for you to keep up your practice over the weekend. Any information published on this website or by this brand is not intended as a replacement for medical advice or a substitute for the advice of a professional, and you should not rely on it.
