How to stay positive during the crisis - Simon Dent & Ben Bidwell
I'm joined by founder of Dark Horses, Simon Dent, and The Naked Professor, Ben Bidwell, for a chat about mental health during the pandemic. Simon has had to deal with his agency and clients going through a huge drop in revenue and has enlisted the help of Ben (not just through hard times) to keep morale up in the team.
