For this special episode, John and Andrew discuss the Corona Virus -while in isolation. They discuss feeling the heaviness, lack of control and some great strategies for finding peace. They also discuss the gift of time we have been given in self isolation and the potential for this time to be one of unmatched creativity and beauty. The conversation ends with the image of a lighthouse. May we always bring the light no matter the storm. This! Is Obstacle Course. Let's keep our distance!
A special thanks to Alexa Close for not being too mad at her Dad.

What will we do with the time that we've been given?
Here's Heather's excellent episode on grief.
If we can come together, this could be an unprecedented time for beautiful things to happen.
Fighting to be positive and forcing hope are two decisions we can make right now!
We are in complete control of our reactions. This is great news for control freaks!
We can't control the storm but we can always control the light!
Being a lighthouse keeper!
P.S. Lex found out I recorded in her bedroom and was mad for like 5 seconds and then she helped me name this episode. :)
