Ep 235 – How to Survive in Business When Life Throws You a Curve Ball

If there's anything the past 2 years have taught us, it's that things don't always go according to plan. In addition to a global pandemic, here are just a few of the issues our colleagues have had to deal with recently (in no particular order):

- Contracting Covid

- Illness of a family member requiring your care

- Working from home instead of an office

- Moving house under lockdown restrictions

- Accident resulting in broken bone or other disabling injury

- New baby

- House fire

- Difficulty finding a new home

- Sick pet

- Loss of childcare

- Death of a loved one

- Increased costs of necessities such as medication or fuel

- Illness requiring surgery

- Actual war breaking out in your country

- Kids home all day to homeschool

- Loss of primary or supplementary income

Just reading that list might stress you out, or it might make you think "HOLY CRAP I'M A WARRIOR!" One thing is for sure - we can't predict the future and we can't prevent the universe from throwing us a curve ball. So....how can you keep your business afloat (and your sanity in check) when a crisis occurs?
