Listen to the ASCP Esty Talk podcast ascpskincare.com/podcasts 59 IT CERTAINLY IS EASY TO feel alone in the world these days. With pandemic-imposed isolation and spas and salons opening, closing, and reopening (and sometimes closing for good), being able to hold on to something and feel secure may seem like a bygone luxury. So, if you feel like you're afloat in your own little lifeboat at times, I'm here to tell you you're not alone. We're in the people biz because we're people people. Your colleagues, friends, and even your most formidable competitors feel exactly the same. What better way to combat isolation, loneliness, and the fear of the Great Unknown than to contribute to something, become part of a like-minded group, and enact change? The best way to begin is to look for regional groups and check out what they have to offer. Does their mission resonate with you? Explore spa, beauty, and wellness groups within your community. Can't find any? Then it may be time to create your own. Community leaders are people who rise to the occasion and step up to help with whatever tools and passion they have. Small steps often lead very quickly to significant change and accomplishment. There is no better time to begin than now. CREATING COMMUNITY IN A TIME OF ISOL ATION by Mary Bemis
