Hockey, Wellness, and Travel: A Conversation with Chris and Lauren Pronger | Yes, We Can! Livestream
Welcome back to the "Yes, We Can!" podcast! 🎙️ In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, host Kira Andersen sits down with the incredible Lauren and Chris Pronger. Chris, a former St. Louis Blues hockey player, and Lauren, founder of the wellness travel company Well Inspired Travels, share their journey of navigating life’s challenges, personal growth, and their mission to inspire others to live well.
Lauren and Chris open up about their lives, including the struggles and triumphs that have shaped who they are today.
