64. What Coronavirus Has Taught Me + Hope for Small Towns

The Growing Small Towns Show - A podcast by Rebecca Undem - Mondays

On the show today, Rebecca is talking COVID-19. In this unprecedented time, we can learn so much about ourselves and there are always bright spots in the midst of hardship (as her yard can attest.) She talks about the clarity this time has brought, how she is recommitting to values and her mission both in her personal life and for her business, and the importance of nurturing what you already have. She also talks about why she is so grateful for her small town (always, but particularly right now) and why the future of small towns could actually be brighter post-COVID.  In this episode, we tackle… What we can learn about ourselves and our towns from COVID-19 Rebecca has always been about Feeling Your Feelings, and now is absolutely no exception. It’s a big thing with big feelings attached, and it’s important to both honor those feelings and also find a way forward. Hard times also bring clarity, and Rebecca shares how her mission and values are clearer than ever and what that means going forward. She also offers up so much hope about why our small towns could come back stronger than ever post-COVID, and offers sincere prayers and hope for you and your small town, too.
