If you missed last weekend’s blog post, you can read part one here of THIS TOO SHALL PASS.

I now want to share part two….

I spent Saturday recording a podcast for you on what’s happening here in Italy with the Coronavirus continuing to grow.

I feel like I’m in a time machine right now and able to share with you what many of you are about to go through.

In Italy, we are about four to six weeks in front of the USA.

We’ve now been in a national quarantine for a week.

As I shared in the newsletter this weekend, it was my prediction that what we are experiencing many of you would soon be too (*and that is, unfortunately, turning out to be true).

This podcast is not about the virus (I’m not a doctor or a scientist and will never pretend to be).

This podcast is about how to get your “mindset right” during this global crisis:

• How to prepare for what could quickly become a global recession.
• Why what we’re about to go through economically is unlike anything we have ever experienced.
• Why it’s going to require a plan for you and your family to stay healthy, sane and financially protected.
• And why I think you should start to take action now – and how!

I share exactly what I am doing here in Florence with my family to stay both sane and to, candidly, feel better emotionally through this – and get stronger.

We’ve learned a lot in a week. The quarantine has been a stunning change of life to say the least, but there are actually massive benefits that we’re experiencing, including an abundance of family time (not always easy but certainly special).

So if you listen to podcasts, please come over and listen to this one now – it’s called THIS TOO SHALL PASS.

If you enjoy it, please rate it and share it with your friends.

I have decided to “work, not worry” through these challenging times.

Maybe you can do the same?

And because I’m in Italy out in front of this – I want to share my experience, strengths and hopes with you to help you.

And “triple down on my goodness, and share more” with my friends and community.

Most of my sharing will come in the form of my podcast, because it’s the easiest way for me to get information to you fast.

And let’s face it, you’re about to have a lot of time to fill & podcasts will help fill that time.

So, please enjoy! Let me know if these newsletters are helping you and if you enjoy the podcasts.

You can post your comments on my Instagram or Facebook page. I’m reading your comments daily.

Sending you love, strength and hope from Firenze! (*where we will want you to come visit when this all passes).
