Key Takeaways:

“You have to be sensitive to the culture and the market around you. Even if your business is continuing to operate, there are still your clients who are facing major layoffs and other things, so we have to be sensitive. We cannot just have a business as usual type of message and just charge ahead. I think in my opinion, it's the wrong way to go. I think it's good to be kind to yourself and know that you're going to feel these emotions, those are human, but also know that you are a business owner, you're strong, you're going to develop a plan of action.” - April Meese

 

“I think one of the best things is that we can unite and bond together and figure out ways that we can really be helpful to each other in this time and help each other and really have a bigger impact supporting each other's businesses and also just show a little grace.” - April Meese 

“You might be feeling hopeless or helpless, but we want to look at the things that we can control. And one of those things that we can control is our thoughts and our feelings.” - April Meese 

We'll probably go into recession. We may not. I could be completely wrong. The thing that I want to say is, let's take this time to reflect and analyze our business as much as we can.” - April Meese 

“When we’re not distracted with our own survival, we’re able to take a moment and see where am I needed?” - April Meese
