Story time! ❤️?? Today I’m reading one of my all-time favorite passages
for tough times, from Rainer Maria Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet. I love
this timeless letter (#8, written in 1904) so much that I included an
excerpt at the very start of Pivot, and a second excerpt to close the
book—both are included in the full text that I’m reading on this episode.

Background from our kick-off to this Pivoting Around A Pandemic 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:
