Join us on Friday, March 27, at 8 am PDT / 3 pm GMT for a webinar with licensed marriage and family therapist and self-care coach Courtney Muir and representatives of all three guilds.

In this webinar, she will discuss why COVID-19 is bringing up intense emotions, how we can work with those emotions to move forward in uncertain times, and what specific strategies and tools are particularly useful for "keeping calm and carrying on" right now. Courtney will be joined by members of the Barista Guild, Roasters Guild, and Coffee Technicians Guild leadership, who will lead a Q&A with questions collected from their communities.

As the situation continues to rapidly evolve, we are still waiting to understand the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our industry. This is an unprecedented situation for all of us, but we are heartened by the way communities are coming together to support each other and to make their voices heard.
