Tis the season to be jolly. Or in my case, tis the season to be germy? I have been more careful in the past two weeks than probably the entire rest of the pandemic, and yet, I caught the COVID.

I’ve been living in isolation to make sure I don’t expose my kids anymore than necessary, and I get to come on out on Christmas morning.

These are the five lessons being in isolation (and sick with this super scary disease) has taught me.

1. We take WAY too much for granted.
2. The antidote to worry is action.
3. We are all far more resilient than we give ourselves credit for.
4. Be looking for the memory moments, even in shitty situations.
5. ACCEPT HELP.

Take a listen and if you find any of these lessons helpful, I’d love to hear all about it in the comments.
