Top 3 tips for resilience in pandemic - KCLR Podcast

5th November 2020

Many business owners I know, agree that running your own business is challenging, rewarding and character-building. Running your own business in a pandemic that seems un-ending is quite a different matter.

Regardless of the type of business you own, your bottom line now heavily depends on your ability to function with a clear and focussed mind, two things that are greatly threatened by constant and rapidly changing circumstances due to COVID-19 preventative measures.

The pandemic has brought added pressures and stresses of protecting customers and employees, finding new ways to pivot business to on-line services, learning new systems and technology while trying to retain customer loyalty and brand identity with shop doors closed.

Without proper stress-management strategies in place many people are likely to experience burn-out due to pro-longed periods of poor sleep, fatigue, brain fog and feeling agitated and irritable. Weight-gain is another side-effect of un-managed stress and this does not always work favourbly for our self-image.

"Never before has it been so apparent that our health is our wealth. You simple cannot keep running on an empty tank. So, how do you avoid burn out in a pandemic that seems un-ending?"

I spoke to John Purcell on KCLR98FM business show The Bottom Line to give my six-minutes worth of my three top tips for building resilience to stay focused in order to successfully reach your business goals.

  • I Discovered My Passion

    I was stressed with a lot going on in my life. I needed to find space to clear my mind. Caroline helped me to relax. Then, by asking me a few relevant questions I got an ‘aha moment’. I left with an idea for starting a new business doing something I really care about. I discovered my passion and left feeling energised.

  • More Aware of Signs of Stress & Anxiety

    The biggest benefit of the coaching programme was having someone to listen to me, who ‘gets’ what’s going on with me. Caroline helped me to put in place a step by step self-care routine. Also, I’m more aware of the signs of anxiety and stress now and am able to do things that reduce their effects.

  • Invites Peace & Tranquility

    Caroline poems are soothing and inspiring. Her words have the power to captivate and charm the soul. Connecting with Nature is a very effective way to reduce symptoms of stress, because it slows down the mind and helps the body to relax. Reading poetry is an instant way of inviting peace and tranquillity into your life. Caroline combines both in ‘The Whisperings of Nature’.
