20: Thoughts on Leading During Loss

Summary

Just over a week ago my mom passed away. As we went through that process and in the week leading up to it, I thought a lot about leading during a loss like that. This week I share just a few things for you to think about when leading through extremely tough situations like this. 

Unlike other episodes, I did not script this one. It's more freeform. I hope you will find the message useful.
