My whole family just did your live-stream workout. My dad has Parkinson’s meaning he’s a high risk. He can’t go to the gym, and working out is his only means of keeping his symptoms at bay. Today we were all able to workout through your live and had a blast. You’ve made a personal difference in my families life by doing this and I just can’t thank you enough for your light and love and encouragement during this season!!! Thank you thank you.” Steph - Book by @vexking: Good Vibes, Good Life. You can listen to Michelle’s last podcast with us here: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/michelle-battersby-turning-a-job-into-a-career/id1457667995?i=1000436906910  To donate or find out more about Wildlife Victoria head to: wildlifevictoria.org.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
