Hi, Everyone,
We’re living in surreal times, so while we always try to have some fun on the podcast, and today’s episode is no exception, we wanted to share some ideas for remaining calm and connected during this strange and frightening period. First, however, we remind you about our upcoming free event on the Leasey application. After further reflection post recording, we’ve decided to share the info publicly. This is a time where coming together is so important, and this is one way we can help to facilitate that. Here is the info to join us on Thursday, March 26:

Another way we’re helping folks to stay connected is via our upcoming free open house on Friday, March 27 from 2-5 PM ET. It will provide us an opportunity to chat with one another informally and support each other. Let’s relax a bit and have a little fun in a friendly, open-hearted environment. Here’s the info to join us:
