Hey everyone,
Just wanted to give you all a quick update. We’ve been dealing with some rough weather here. One typhoon just passed through, and now another, even stronger one, is on its way. Thankfully, I’ve been able to keep the exclusive podcasts and videos on schedule, but I’m running behind on the regular uploads.
Right now, I’ve got three videos ready to record, and I’m hoping things go smoothly once the storms clear. I really appreciate your patience and understanding while I catch up, it means a lot to me that you stick with me through this.
v/r,
Wes
