I know it’s tough being cooped up at home for most of the day and night for weeks, likely months on end, and life has slowed down dramatically, especially on the weekend (what day is it anyway?). That’s why it’s important to keep yourself busy and engaged while abiding by social distancing rules.

Law360 recently published an article of mine, “Don’t Be Social Media Distancing: LinkedIn Tips For Lawyers” that I wanted to highlight on the blog. These tips can be used by lawyers and other professionals for appropriate brand building and marketing during the coronavirus outbreak.

Here’s an excerpt of the article:

I read a great article in Social Media Today, which brought to my attention the fact that LinkedIn is providing free mindfulness courses on its LinkedIn Learning platform to help individuals cope with the coronavirus and the isolation many of us are feeling.
