When normality is lost, we are faced with an opportunity for change and growth. If we decide to take it.
Since we have been forced out of our comfort zone by current events, we are presented with the chance to stop indulging in the things that are familiar and easy.

This is a great moment to inquire what it is that is essential to us, and ask ourselves a few uncomfortable, but important questions about how we need to look at our lives, our work and our impact for the future.
