Hey guys, welcome back to Thick and Thin with me Katie Bilotti.

I wanted to put up a short but sweet episode this week, you know, everything has been kind of crazy in the news just in the world

right now things are just really hectic right now and I have not fully just had the energy to put together a really intense episode this week.

I don't think any of us can really handle a really intense episode this week with a lot of

juicy historical knowledge and you know I have plans to do more episodes like that

definitely in the near future but this week I thought that I would just kind of just

send out a little message to the world and just something a little bit warm and comfortable and easy to digest.

So I thought that this episode would just be a little unpacking and you just sharing how I'm feeling. I know last week's

episode was a little bit you know uncertain. I'm not saying this one is more

certain with the things I'll be sharing but I feel that there's just a need right now in the world for just some understanding,

some kind words, some kind thoughts, and just some understanding.

I'm going to say it again, because I feel that when the whole world is in crisis I mean that's something that we have not known in our lifetimes many of us that are likely listening to this this podcast episode my main demographic is people that are in their late teens, 20s,

and none of us have experienced anything quite like this where it affects such a large mass number of people and so many people

are in panic with social media and fake news and fear-mongering and just people really just sitting here unsure of how to

react and what to do next and for the first time in our lives we are being

forced and told to stay home and just you know remain calm if

that's even possible and just stay home and it's it's proving to be more

difficult than many of us thought to just sit at home and watch TV and

sit in bed. It's like the grass is always greener you when you're running around

New York or wherever you are just kind of from one meeting to the next feeling super burnt out not

sleeping not taking a moment to relax and all you want to do is sit in bed and be at

home and be with your friends on FaceTime watching a really crappy reality show.
