0:00 Enabled warriors, we are back with Paul Ace, my lovely husband. We have a quick chat about COVID. So, Paul, you are with me in the UK right now? Yes. How do you think COVID has affected our way of life?0:16 Erm... I think the social aspects you don't realise like, I'm wish, like giving someone a hug. Oh, you know, like, you don't realise how much I actually seen someone in person is such a different relationship. Yeah. And from, you know, from a health perspective, my side I've just been really conscious about making sure I've stayed healthy so you can stay healthy.0:41 And yeah, my hands are pretty dry.0:46 I mean, we've, the first week that COVID came into the UK, I was watching the news every day and that's the first time watching us for a long time.0:55 You could tell as well, because you'll- my whole mind was just off everything. Yeah, you can't focus on anything. That was real.1:04 Exactly. So so as soon as I stopped doing that, I was like, Oh, well, this is better.1:10 Yeah, but the thing is the thing. I think the thing that we are kind of thinking about now is what's going to happen after this, you know, like, what's going to be a new normal because he can't go back to the way that it was? Well, I'm very curious as well.1:25 So it's highly contagious right now. When will it stop being highly contagious? Like the talking about herd mentality, but I'm not quite sure. Where that like whether that will make people more immune or not going forward? Will it be a lower strain going forward? Or is it just going to be as it is right now? Is this going to happen every year? No one knows yet?1:51 Well, no, I think until they come up with a cure and until1:56 then, I do1:57 think is the best time ever in history. To start an online business,2:01 yeah, you do bang on the base quite a lot. Yes, go with a good reason2:06 why and why, why, right- . Here's the thing. online businesses, recession proof. Like I can tell you with the clients that we've been working with, like they're all doing even better now. And what's the other thing? They don't not rely on? Anything else that goes wrong in the world? like they've got their own little bubble going on? Yeah. And if anything like it's growing, so just think, I think the biggest thing from COVID is it's just sped up the whole digital transformation of the world where what might have took another 10, 20, maybe 20 years, we've kind of done that in three months.2:49 We've had to, we've had to because again, it's about adaptive situations, and making the best of the situation.2:56 Yeah, and this note, got no choice. You just got to do what you've just got to do. Do what you've got to do and, and, you know, anyone who's being silly enough to do a social gathering right now, it's just idiotic.3:08 I don't know why anybody is doing that.3:11 You know, and it's really interesting to see how many people are now know what zoom is?3:18 Yes. Including your dad who is a complete technophobe.3:21 Yeah. Who ringing you up going? Well, how do we use zoom? Because I need to speak to so and so. In your meeting? How do we use zoom? How do I set up the call?3:31 It's amazing, which is great. And it shows how it can you know, write my mom's considered high risk? Yeah. So it means my dance having to do a lot more of the things like the shopping and everything like that. I mean, the3:43 first time ever,3:44 yeah. So you just have to learn. You have to learn different skills when you put on the pressure. And so, you know, environment wise as well. There's a lot of positives that have come out of that part in terms of seasonality. levels have gone down, which is good, obviously, that the deaths are not not good at all. I think the news is skewed a lot of that, to make it look like there's a lot of healthy people dying a lot of the time. It has sped up things where people have already got an underlying health condition. And if you've got an underlying health condition, avoid all contact with other people. Lik
