We are all going through really hard times. Terrifying times if we’re honest. Some are looking the other way, hoping it goes away, but many are paying attention and it’s extremely alarming and overwhelming. We’ve been hit with another global shock, and it takes time to settle into a new reality, especially with such horrifying consequences on the table.
I don’t know everything and certainly don’t pretend I do. But I work hard to understand what’s going on, taking on board the really big stories and trying to make sense of them. To do this, it does have a toll, but I wanted to explain how I cope with the information deluge, as well as the mindset that keeps me going – most of the time.
I just hope this is valuable for anyone who is struggling right now.
