Mystery Treats

First and foremost, we want to thank everyone on the front lines right now... you're amazing. This episode has a similar theme to our last one -- staying connected, making sure we're safe, supplied, and entertained during this difficult time. In that regard, we'll be devoting our April free event to this very topic, as well. We'll be sharing some practical tips and suggestions for reaching out during isolation, getting what you need, dealing with stress, staying relaxed, and much more. Some info will be material we've previously shared via the podcast, but some will be new. We'd love for you to come, and, of course, bring your questions. This is a public event, so feel free to invite your friends or colleagues.
