What does Animal Crossing have to do with our mental health? Apparently a lot!

Right now we are all trying to cope, as best we can, with the anxiety and stress of a global pandemic.

When we have the ability to decompress (positively) through hobbies and play, we give our minds the healthy break it needs to recoup and recover so that it can tackle the challenges of the day.

That said, it's also important to recognize that boundaries are IMPORTANT so that our hobbies don't take over our lives and lead to some serious procrastination.

So let's talk about Animal Crossing as a way to boost our mental health!

Today we are joined by Samuel Michaels, a lawyer based in Toronto Ontario, Canada and he is answering questions like "Can you refuse to work?", "What about hiring employees back after layoff...do you HAVE to?" and "what are we allowed to do in general??".

Many of us are wondering how to approach the current shutdown, especially when it comes to our employees, the needs of the business and what will happen if we do have to let people go.

On the flip side, we have employees asking if they are allowed to refuse to work if they don't feel safe in the workplace due to the pandemic.

While most situations are context-specific, Sam does a great job helping us understand a few basics, and even gives out his personal number if you have questions!

So if you're wondering whether or not you are obligated to hire employees back after laying them off, or if you are an employee wondering whether or not you have the right to refuse to return to work, then Sam is who you need to speak to.

Today's episode is with Christine Mitchell, The Car Lady, and she shares how she is leading by example and surviving the COVID shutdown as a business owner.

For over 23 years, Christine and her team have worked with dealerships and their customers to educate and train customers on their new vehicles.

Now that COVID has prevented any group gatherings for the time being, Christine is focused on making sure her dealerships are supported, her team is getting the rest and mental health break they need, and that she remains focused on building new skills with her time.

Unlike many in the in the automotive industry, Christine is staying present and putting in the work so that she can do everything possible to keep her business healthy.

A passionate advocate for women in the automotive industry, this former GM technician is encouraging young women to consider entering the automotive industry in the trade and service side of the business, especially if they have strong computer skills!

Today we're talking about how to lead the next generation of business owners and Ryan Oneil Knight is doing it with intention, and profit!

This episode is especially powerful because Ryan has figured out a way to incorporate accountability, mindset, mental health, and values into his business.

By teaching our youth, and young adults, how to be accountable for their actions and decisions, he is shaping the leaders of tomorrow.

This in turn impacts our communities, the way we generate ideas and create opportunities. When we pay attention to the young adults in our communities, we have the opportunity to show up for them, show them that we care about them, and that we understand how important their success is to us.

He is successfully shaping the hearts and minds of our young business leaders in every community across the country!

Here is a big question: how are you taking responsibility for your time during the quarantine?

Today we are discussing responsibility, accountability and how our thoughts lead to our beliefs, and those beliefs can lead to our behaviours.

Accountability and mental health have a lot to do with each other, and our ability to foster a strong sense of self, our self esteem and belief in our ability to make it through difficult situations.

Once you recognize that you are able to change your thoughts, then you will be able to change how you react to this challenging time!
