265: Tips, Tricks & Strategies For Moving Abroad With Your Family 178: 94 Things I Do To Set Myself Up For Success - Mikkel Thorup 164: Medical Tourism In ColombiaCONCLUSION
I hope you got a lot of value out of my experience with health care in Panama this past week. Even as I write this, I am still not back to 100%, but I really wanted to share this with you to drive home how important it is to have access to affordable health care, no matter where you are in the world. Aside from that, my experience really demonstrates the value of a support network. I am so grateful to have been surrounded by family, hired help, and friends in the community who I could count on while I was out of commission. We can never prepare for every possible scenario, but we can take actionable steps to put ourselves and our families in the best possible position to cope with the unexpected when it inevitably strikes.Mentioned in this episode:
