A monthly podcast, spawned from the still baby stages of Afloat, where we ask and try to truthfully answer the question, “Are you taking care of yourself?” Jake and Darren landed on Sean Slimak as a first guest and very quickly realized this pod was a trio. So in episode one we get into it. No theme music or logo, still in infant stages. We will check in on our personal goals and habits and have some friends along the way. Thanks for weighing in.
