It's been a powerful couple of months for both of us with what we are working on. It's a really exciting time that we're working with organizations that are deeply thinking about how we can invest in what's really valuable for people.

What can you be investing in for your own adaptability? Kent refines this further...

Kent: "So let's repeat it and let's make sure we've got it in our brains really well. What can we be investing in? And let's give it a base. So in this time of Corona, what does it mean that we all went home? Now I went home years ago. The last time I had a business with an office was in 2014 and 15. I closed that office down in 2015 and I moved into my garage. And I've been there in one form or another, more or less ever since. you know, and, and that was sort of me saying, I'm going to invest in being able to, to work from anywhere I want. And that's what I was thinking at the time...

What's happening and, and part of this, maybe it's not my wake, but it's the wake of Corona, is that we are all being forced. Really fast, far faster than anybody's comfortable with, to effectively learning a new way of human interaction."

So here we go and we hope you enjoy the episode.
