Article Excerpt:

Question #1: As of now, how has the evolving coronavirus pandemic and the various work, community, and travel-related restrictions being set in place impacted your life, personally and professionally?

Linda’s Answer: In a nutshell, it has turned my personal and professional life upside down.

At home, my husband is on a work-from-home mandate. My two college-aged children are now dealing with online learning scenarios as both of their universities have cancelled classes for the rest of the semester.

My oldest is set to graduate, and what a world he will be entering in two months. My youngest is working on her “Plan B” for summer since her study abroad plans to Spain have been cancelled.

All my business travel to conferences and speaking engagements have been cancelled, and three personal trips have been put on ice.
