The Lock In - with Brett Farrell
Brett Farrell
We all need to talk and share stories and connect our humanity beyond policy announcements and facts. We need a collective “this sucks” moment. With the constant shock state and changes to life, we haven’t had the time to process things and say “This Sucks!” That’s about to change. I’ve got the podcast rig out and am lining up people to talk to about the humanity behind life’s changes. We can all say “This Sucks!” and get through this together. Let’s get busy.
