About this episode
There is an abundance of stress to go around right now. I'd say it is likely the most tense and uncertain time I have seen in coffee in my 20 years of working in retail. Stress leads to more stress and as someone who is prone to stress/panic attacks etc I feel this reality all too well. The question is, since it does not seem to be letting up, what do we do with it? Today I wanted to briefly chat about not stressing about stress and turning the tables on it to use it to our advantage.
