Dedication: This episode is dedicated to local, Chattanooga physician and all-around great person Dr. William 'Blake' Haren who has served and continues to serve selflessly here in town with the mental health needs of so many. We are so fortunate to have him, his talents and many others like him here, helping us all navigate these tough times. This episode celebrates the beauty of excellent expression of emotion and so we recognize that many folks around us and in our community struggle in this area and with mental health. Therefore, in addition to art and expression, we also celebrate and dedicate this episode to Dr. Blake Haren and all those like him who serve the needs of others in this regard.
Blake, we salute you. Thank you.
