We talk about the realities facing us as touring professionals during covid.

David, Erin, and Janine discuss the different ways our community is struggling to re-identify ourselves and adjust to the current job climate.

We go over the ways to identify your needs and begin addressing your self-care.

We learn about the differences between mental and physical health.

We acknowledge it is easy to feel crazy this year, communication is a major tool we have available to us and it's a great time to practice using it.

This year is a great time to self reflect, assess our goals and our relationship to them.

Key Takeaways:

The loss of identity and purpose and joy that comes with losing our unique job is real and everyone is finding ways to cope.

Staying busy is a great way to prevent crutching ourselves with substances and also to prevent deep levels of depression.

The most important thing to remember this year is SELF CARE.

For now and when we get back on the road it is important to find ways to incorporate self-care into your day.

Keep your space clean, eat well, find a passion or hobby, and enjoy this time you have to do it.

Staying connected is one of the most important things we should do this year. Use social media and technology responsibly.

The difference between isolation and solitude is that isolation evokes more negative  behavior and solitude nurtures ourselves to heal and thrive.

When you are in the bubble of wavering mental health, reach out to a trusted friend, or contact a mental health expert. (provided on the back of your health insurance card, or check out an AA meeting online.
