325: Your most important asset in times of trouble

How, you might be wondering, are we actually really going to get through this time?

You're not alone in wondering that. I have been wondering about it too.

I've also been feeling terribly guilty, any time that I forget we are in the midst of a worldwide pandemic and find myself enjoying something, or laughing at a joke, or feeling contented.

So today I want to bring you an episode that defines our most important asset, the single most important thing we need to get through this (or any) time of trouble.

I hope you find it helpful! (Click here for this post in your browser.)
