A great podcast with the journalist Dragoș Pătraru, with whom we discussed how education and sport are mandatory investments for our health and how involvement in the community can make a significant difference. I understood from him why we need sports foundations and idols in sports, and he inspired me to get more involved, believing that the best money invested is the one invested in children. We discussed healthy food choices, hobbies, reading and civic activities. I hope you enjoy this discussion as much as I did!
