Let's Talk About Us: Navigating New Territory

COVID-19 creates stress and opportunity. A different approach to our work, a shifting of place and method of communication and creative adjustments to managing our time and attention to ourselves are some of the considerations we have had to re-think over the last few months. It seems this will continue for some time. Seasons will change, new clients will seek assistance and soon your closets will all be cleaned out leaving more space for additional interests. Let’s have a conversation about where we are, what we’re doing, and what we might continue to do or choose to do differently.
