I’m so stoked to get you this interview… because in it, we’re going to get you some specific ways to beat “Pandemic Fatigue.” I mean seriously… beat it back with a stick! We’re going to dig into some strategies to help you not only survive… but thrive… RIGHT NOW. Honestly… that wasn’t what I was originally planning to focus on in this interview… because we’re talking with an expert on competition and resilience. This is a guy who helps athletes… as well as people from all walks of life… perform at their best. But when we started to dig into some of the specific things top athletes do to perform at world-class levels… we started to bring the conversation to applying them to help you to navigate some of the rough stuff that’s hitting us right now. Whether you want to call it “Pandemic fatigue” or “COVID fatigue” it’s rampant. It involves the feelings of being drained, overwhelmed, frustrated… especially because we’re not sure when all of this stuff is going to get better. And if we let it… pandemic fatigue can totally drain our energy… our creativity… our performance. And heck… even our ability to experience joy and peace. Well… if you can relate to this… and… deep down… you’ve been looking for some solutions… I can’t wait to get you this episode. I can tell you that when I got done with recording the episode… I started to apply some of the things we talked about IMMEDIATELY. And I can say that it’s already started to help. And that’s what I want for you. I’m hoping you listen and then set an intention to do something new. Something small but significant to not only survive but thrive… EVEN now! So let’s do this!

What do you think? What stood out to you from this convo with Jake? I loved each of his suggestions… but one specific thing I started to do IMMEDIATELY was to put some specific stuff on my calendar to look forward to. Things for work. Things for family and friends. Quick adventures. They don’t have to be BIG things (although I did schedule some ACTUAL travel – don’t worry… I’ll do it safely!). They can be small but intentional things. But I can already feel a difference. Those milestones are SO important… especially right now! What did you dig? What did it stir up? I want to hear from YOU!
