Summary

Be Honest: Have you had to combat a lot of feelings of fear, confusion, and disappointment recently? You're not the only one! So many are feeling massive disappointment that has come as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic. Brides have had to cancel their weddings. College seniors won’t get to have their commencement ceremony. Athletes won’t get to finish out their seasons. People who relied on their jobs for a stable source of income have had that taken away. It’s absolutely heartbreaking to see not only the number of cases and those affected by the illness but also the vast repercussions it has caused beyond the virus itself. So, that’s what we’re tackling in this episode. We’re going to dive into facing disappointments... then we’re going to rally to find the courage, confidence, and class it takes to move forward when plans royally fall apart.
