📢 Hey there listeners! 📢

Fall is almost here, and while we love the pumpkin spice and cozy sweaters, it can be a tricky season for our lungs! 🍂 Between the changing weather, sneaky allergens like ragweed and mold, and the start of cold & flu season, it's more important than ever to be prepared.

That's why we're encouraging everyone to revisit two of our super-helpful episodes:

🎙️ Episode 21: Features a deep dive into asthma management

🎙️ Episode 22: All about understanding respiratory medications

These episodes are packed with essential information to help you navigate the season safely and breathe easier. Whether you're managing asthma yourself or supporting a loved one, a refresher on these topics can make all the difference as we head further into fall.

Listen or re-listen wherever you get your podcasts! Don't let the fall triggers catch you off guard. Your lungs will thank you! ❤️

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of John Linnell.
It was an absolute honor to have him as a guest on The Cozy Lung Lounge Podcast. He shared his incredible story with such generosity, warmth, and courage—leaving a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege to hear it.

Our hearts are with his family, friends, and all whose lives he touched. His voice and spirit will not be forgotten. 🕊️💙

The team at Right2Breathe is sad to share that our friend and fellow board member John Linnell has passed away. John was a passionate advocate for people living with COPD, and gave so much of his time to Right2Breathe, the COPD Foundation, the American Lung Association, as well as other notable groups advancing COPD care. His contributions to our online patient Support group Pulmonary Chat and insightful questions to our guest speakers provided tremendous value to the group. He was a great example of living his best life despite his COPD, which included taking cruises and traveling.

John will be missed by many, and we will be sure to keep his memory alive within the Right2Breathe community.
