So when we say Magda has lived experience of the topics covered in this season of In Good Health, we really mean it.\\xa0\\xa0\\nNow, Magda sits down with said bestie, Dr. Sandro Demaio, to reflect on what she\\u2019s learned about health this year, her vulnerability while making the show, and what she hopes to see for the future of health in Australia.\\xa0\\xa0\\n\\xa0+++\\xa0\\nIn Good Health is a VicHealth podcast, produced by Deadset Studios.\\nYou can find out more at\\xa0https://vichealth.vic.gov.au/podcasts\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\nVicHealth acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land.
