Welcome to Fit Buddy Happy Joints. My name is Shannon. Today I have Payton on the

about you know my life and like what I'm noticing in my own body because I wanted to like keep this really professional and I wanted to talk about the science and the application of the science but I think that you and I are maybe uniquely positioned
