Empowered Sleep Apnea

[For a full PDF Transcript of this episode including cartoons, click HERE!]
Empowered Sleep Apnea is back...and it's time to leave the Island!
Sleep Apnea, as a diagnosis...as a label...means many things to many people. It has a thousand faces. Moreover, it seems like everywhere you go, there's somebody else telling you that they have the answers...and, somehow, it seems like someone is always trying to sell you something...
In this Season 2 PREMIERE, join Dr. Dave McCarty for a balloon ride of a different color, as he chronicles his two-year post-clinical journey through music, time, space, and friendship to try to find a language that ties us all together.
