Coronovirus (Covid-19) is here. And that means we are all making adjustments to our businesses, lifestyles, and idea of what normal is.

I know this is scary. The unknown is always scary.

And this is pretty freaking unknown. The landscape is changing daily. The news is terrifying. And a lot of us are feeling the effects in our businesses already.

That being said, I want you to know that you are not alone! And you do not have to navigate this situation alone!

Today I wanted to share some amazing resources that I and my friends around the internet have for you and your business.

I also want you to know that I’m here for you! If you are struggling, reach out! I’m here to help you in any way that I can! Including two free PDFs to help you work from home more productively and slashing prices on my Strategy Sessions (normally $397, now $47) for those of you that want/need individual support right now.

First and foremost, I want you to be successful while you adjust to this version of normal.
