I write about the app called Visible that is supposed to help you with energy-limiting health conditions, and I write about Eliza Barry Callahan's 2024 book The Hearing Test. You can find the written version here, our Patreon here, and here's a referral code to the app. I have no idea if it's worth it yet. In the first few weeks yes? But ask me again in 6 months
