Whatever Works with Jasmine MacDonald

Whatever Works is for people dedicated to growth, healing, progress, and rest. It's funny. It's light. It's real. It's heavy. It's about life, love, wellness, illness, the human condition, and all of the accoutrement that comes along with being on this rock traveling 67,000 mph through space. It's about happiness and sadness, loss and gain, and making the most out of the tiny speck of time we have in our bodies. Whatever works, really.
