Episode 9: Keeping it real on social media & beyond
Sterling & Shannon talk about how difficult it can be to remember who you are when battling the sometimes "sea of lies" that can be the circus of social media and remind us that who you are outside of what you are doing virtually matters the most. We are branching out beyond animal welfare to talk about what matters the most - the PEOPLE behind the screen.
Episode Eight: be RESPONSIVE not REACTIVE
On Episode 8, Shannon and Sterling talk about the importance of taking a pause before responding to difficult people, why tone matters and, as always, encourage everyone to look within at WHY people are bothering you. It's better to respond with intention than reacting to your emotions - but we know it is easier said than done! That's why we are going to talk about it! #SAMETEAM
