One Plant, A World Of Possibilities With Colleen Quinn

On today's episode we catch back up some of our Director's about the state of the world in 2020. While many things around us are changing daily, one thing has remained relatively constant, and that is the challenges presented to businesses, families, and lives around the world from the impact of COVID-19. We have all had to adapt in one way or the other and explore alternative avenues for our employment and as employers, and how we connect with friends and family. While the days do seem scary we also discuss hope in the ways in which we see communities come together, the sacrifices made by those in essential businesses, and for the ways in which Aromatherapy has found a place in more people's lives.
