Paring Down: Realistic minimalism, decluttering, & intentional livingShow Notes
I sat down with Dr. J Mack Slaughter—ER physician, former boy band member, and one of my favorite follows on social media—for a conversation that's equal parts entertaining and genuinely lifesaving.
Here's what I learned, and what you'll take away too:
Which common situations usually don't require an ER visit (and the specific warning signs that mean you should go immediately)
The most avoidable dangers that send people to the ER most often
How to spot health misinformation online
How to be aware of risks while still living fully
If you've ever wondered what's really worth worrying about, you'll want to tune in to this episode!
