While all of us have been adjusting to self-imposed social distancing and
quarantine this week under new global guidelines, Lindsay Pedersen had a
head start. She and her family live in the greater Seattle area, which was
the site of the first major outbreak in the U.S. In this conversation with
Lindsey and Dr. Consuelos, we talk about the emotional rollercoaster of the
entire family staying home all day, and creative ways to infuse silliness,
sanity, and connection.

Quick background on both: Lindsay Pedersen is a brand strategist and author
of Forging an Ironclad Brand. Dr. Michael J. Consuelos is the Principal at
MJC Solutions, a veteran-owned, small business that provides professional
consulting and advisory services to organizations serving the healthcare
sector. He has held several leadership roles in emergency preparedness and
pandemic response since 1997.

Background from our kick-off to this series, episode 159: With so much
happening daily in the world and global economy around coronavirus, we’re
all dealing with massive amounts of uncertainty, pivots at work, and for
many—fear and anxiety that comes with not only the health concerns, but
questions around how to maintain our livelihoods moving forward.

When Momentum member and pandemic expert Dr. Michael J. Consuelos reached
out to offer himself as a resource to the JBE team and the MoMo community,
I jumped at the chance to record a conversation for all of you as well,
which has now turned into a full-blown series:

* 159: Pivoting Around a Pandemic

* 160: 11 Ways for Solopreneurs to Maintain Momentum

* 161: Personal Safety, Contingency Planning, and Crucial Conversations
