Manage episode 407175382 series 3558580
In this episode of "Positively Undefeated," we have a casual conversation with guest Jeremy about our experiences living in Western Oklahoma and our love for the windy environment. We mention the video we shot at a location with crosses and the peaceful feeling we experienced there. We clarify our involvement in Rob's Ranch and Path to Miracles and discuss our positive impressions of a rehab facility we have visited. We go on to emphasize that people's preconceived notions about rehab centers can be inaccurate and express how important it is to expose oneself to different environments.
