In this episode, I'm giving you some straight talk, drawing on lessons from the military and running businesses through tough times. We cover how to maintain structure, lead or follow effectively, focus your energy where it counts, and most importantly, how to view this challenge as a massive opportunity to get stronger, personally and professionally. Stop focusing on the monsters under the bed and start focusing on what you CAN control.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Establish and stick to a solid routine, even when your world feels upside down. Structure helps manage chaos.
