Never in our lifetimes did we think we'd be faced with a pandemic and worldwide lockdowns because of a virus ravaging entire countries. It's an extremely stressful time, and the virus has varying degrees of effects on people's lives. Many people have contracted the virus, lots of people have lost loved ones to the virus (including us), others have lost their jobs, lost their social lives, and honestly, a lot of people have simply lost their hope. No matter where you are on the spectrum, one thing is for sure - none of us are coming out of this unscathed. Here are our top 5 recommended coping skills right now.

Have you ever felt like everything that others are saying is somehow directed at you and absolutely-without-a-doubt meant to throw down the gauntlet and challenge you? Then this is your episode. We chat about how to stop getting so easily offended, how to proactively not offend others while still speaking your truth, how to communicate with someone you disagree with, and even some special backhanded compliments we've gotten during our lives.
