Getting Real about Men's Health "I want to show that we can talk about health, we can check in on each other and we can get exams and screenings to ensure we stick around for ourselves and our loved ones." Bertram L. Lawson II, President & CEO of YGBW ------------------------------------------------------ As part of his ongoing Health Seeker's Journey, Bertram recently sat down with members of the YGBW Board of Directors to have a discussion about many aspects of health and wellness. Their conversation is open, honest and inspirational. We hope you will listen in. Thank you to Hugh Algeo, Rodney Goldston MBA, Scott Heinerichs and Michael Troupe for your leadership and willingness to share. https://lnkd.in/eZVcuYTy
