If you want consistent results, you have to follow a consistent process.
What does it mean to have more recovery in your time rather than just more time in recovery? That's the big question Bill Ward and Jesse P tackle in this episode of THEUDRCAST. They dive into the nuances of how quality over quantity plays a crucial role in the recovery journey.
