14 Things We're Loving During the COVID Lockdown
Finding goodness in the middle of this pandemic can feel a little like hunting for a needle in a haystack. So we rounded up 14 things we’re absolutely loving right now ranging from entertainment, to financial support, to random cool stuff to do. So dig in and soak up this juicy goodness. (And scroll all the way to the end for a free 14 day trial to the Hatch Tribe Collective!)
Giggles About Marriage During COVID - If you’re completely over your partner right now from being locked up with them 24/7, this should be a good laugh for both of you!
Inside Bills Brain: Decoding Bill Gates - This Hatch Tribe approved Netflix binge is inspiring AF and reminds us that we’re ALL human and ALL capable of doing amazing things with our time on Earth.
Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend - This podcast leaves us doubled over with laugh-out-loud laughter. It’s the perfect accompaniment to a walk around the neighborhood and a break from the news.
SheaMoisture $1M Fund - This fund was created specifically to support small minority & women of color businesses. PS. Their CEO has a rad perspective on why now might be a good time to start a business!
GrantSpace Guide to COVID Financial Support - Hats off to GrantSpace for creating one of the most robust guides we’ve seen for financial support for businesses, individuals, artists, and non-profits.
DanceChurch - Once an in-person dance party pop up in cities across the US, they’ve pivoted to virtual dance parties that are fun for the entire family. They go live every Wednesday 8pm EST & Sunday 1pm EST. Do it. You won’t be sorry.
World’s Favorite PE Teacher - For all the moms out there who need a break, look no further than Joe Wicks. He’s quickly become the world’s most popular PE teacher and when you see him, you’ll know why ;)
Creative Mornings Field Trips - Once a breakfast lecture series happening in cities all over the world, they’ve pivoted to offering “virtual field trips” that you can attend anywhere in the world. Pop into a zombie apocalypse planning party, a sound bath, a mind map drawing class, or calming calligraphy. The possibilities are truly endless.
Transformation Table - There’s nothing like breaking bread with friends. But doing so with people from different countries, different cultures, and different backgrounds, all from the comfort of your home is pretty darn cool. Rumor has it a series of new virtual dinners will be announced very soon!
Dating Durid COVID - Single and ready to mingle? Don’t let COVID stop you from dating it up...virtually that is. Bumble saw a 93 percent increase in video chat and voice call usage from March 13-27. Maybe now is the perfect time to actually get to know someone!
Zoom Background Graphics - Want a rad, custom background for your Zoom meetings? 99designs jumped on it and is cranking them out for $49 a piece. If you’ve done this we’d love to see what you landed on!
Celebrating #MicroWins with Daron Roberts - If you’re not getting as much done as you’re used to (haha), try this on for size. Celebrate #MicroWins each day in the following 3 categories: Work, Family, and Health. We’ve loved seeing Daron Roberts share this mindset, approach and his own journey on LinkedIn!
Dreamy Interior Design - If being cooped up is causing you to feel a little lackluster about your own home and decor, we love interior designer Jill Howard’s Instagram feed. Plus she’s doing virtual consults if you want help sprucing up your place while on lockdown!
The Dodo - Hands down this Instagram account is heartwarming and occasionally tear-jerking showing amazing stories of animals being rescued, reunited, and rehabilitated. It’s a beautiful reminder that all creatures, not just humans, go through some tough shit.
Last, but not least…
