Covid19 caught me in Spain, studying for my Coaching certification.
My LinkedIn feed exploded with “how-to-stay-effective” posts or “I’m-learning-XYZ-what-about-you” articles. It took me weeks to be able to focus and months to shake the feeling of guilt of not staying productive.
Then I realized “In a strange way, not progressing may be its own form of productivity.” I decided to give myself time, and space to feel all the fear, sadness, uncertainty, and anxiety Covid19 brought to my life and I discovered the strength that comes with real vulnerability.
