Jeremie asked Jessica what she sees working in businesses right now. She responded that people are tired of the conflict in the world. It's an important time for leaders to become healthy. There is an urgency around getting healthy and staying healthy. Leaders must think for themselves, own their point of view and be proactive in leadership. She sees the importance of helping leaders focus on what really matters from a sense of peace. People don't have reserves yet, so if they are going to be able to function they have to work to get healthy.
