SMA TO A-OK PODCAST

This podcast deals with the topic of depression and anxiety. I did this podcast because I feel that this is a topic that many of us in the SMA community will have to deal with at some point in our life. This podcast explains my journey with depression, in my hopes and prayers are that it will help someone who’s listening to it.
