“I can’t do that.” “That’s not for me.” “I’m not able to do that.”  Thinking about the outdoors and outdoor activities can be intimidating for people living with a bleeding disorder.  But should they be?

That’s what we’re here discuss with this month’s guest, GutMonkey Founder and CEO, Pat Torrey, on Episode 9 - or, our Outdoor Education Episode - of The Ask The Expert Podcast!
