Ep. 221 "The Choice is Yours!" (Diary Entry 2:2 with Gunnar Gaylord)

In this second half, Gunnar Gaylord offers a powerful message about personal accountability. He expands on where he's at in his journey now and gives more beautiful insights. He's also a great pet sitter. 

Gunnar is such a great human and incredible talent. He's been tattooing for 27 years and is going to be presenting his seminar "27" at this year's Paradise Tattoo Convention.

Do yourself a favor and look into the APT (Alliance of Professional Tattooistis) by clicking here. Do so, even if you're not a tattoo artist; As a tattoo collector, it would be wise to know what regulations and requirements your artist has on them (what your state requires). 

Legislation is going to hit tattooing whether we like it or not, so the Alliance aims to keep it in the hands of tattoo practitioners (which is a great mission as far as this podcast is concerned). 

Thank you Gunnar and thank you Listeners!
