Daniel Herzog is the director of the documentary "Beautifully Broken", capturing the journey of an ultramarathon runner preparing to embark on a 250-mile race in honor of his father, who passed away by su***de. The Holistic Huskies talk with Daniel about his creative process, what it was like to film an ultramarathon, and how his experience has changed his own outlook on mental health and resilience.

In honor of World AIDS Day today, the Sexperts invite you to join us in honoring the global movement to end HIV stigma and promote s*xual health for all.

Stop by our annual UCondom-a-thon to learn how to properly put on a condom, a skill that helps prevent HIV & other s*xually transmitted infections. In return for participating, you’ll get a free ice cream!

Come connect with the Sexperts, grab safer-s*x supplies, and honor those we’ve lost to HIV/AIDS by taking action in your own life to protect yourself & your partner(s)!
