123. What to Do When Sh*t Happens

There comes a time when we all go through crap…in life, in business…and it’s often both at the same time. Because what’s impacting us personally is bound to impact us professionally too as small business owners.   When this happens, everything can feel pretty hopeless.    I’m hearing from a lot of people these days about some of the garbage going on in their lives, from divorce to illness to just a really difficult year in business so far. None of these challenges will go away on their own and they all take time to get through.    This week on the podcast I’m sharing some strategies of how to look at your challenges more objectively and what to do next to get through it.
