EP 36 - Josh Trent: The Making of a Buddha

What does it really mean to be a lifetime learner and explorer on a journey in search for the real truth about human wellness and potential?

Paul talks about that journey with a kindred spirit in Josh Trent, the founder of the amazing Wellness Force Radio podcast in this very special Living 4D episode.
