Show Notes: Over the weekend, my LinkedIn disappeared! I was panicked. But I didn’t need to be. Past incidents just like this tricked me into thinking that it would take weeks to get my account back. Weeks I did not have! But I was wrong. By reaching out for help, trying new tactics, and treating this situation with positivity, I got my account back in less than a week. Don’t let this happen to you! Don’t spend time and energy worrying over nothing. Positivity is your friend and safeguard your investments! If you assume the worst, you give up your power. Assume the best and just see what happens!
