It’s impossible to ignore: the coronavirus pandemic is dominating news coverage and affecting our daily lives and businesses. In this month’s special edition of the Inner Circle Round Up, we’ve compiled a list of news outlets that have removed paywalls to make essential information accessible - and there’s also some new opportunities to keep you distracted!

For a team that thrives on collaboration, it’s critical that we manage to stay connected and productive, even when we’re apart. Luckily, we have an arsenal of digital tools at our disposal that enables us to keep the lines of communication open. It’s also important that during these times when we are so digitally connected, that we find moments for ourselves to step away from the computer too.

These days you can find podcasts on any topic you can imagine, from international affairs to animal psychology. Everyone from big media outlets to companies to individuals are trying to get in the podcast game.  Dani Townsend had the chance to chat with her friend and local podcast host Phil aka Thee Bearded Host about his experiences in the field and how he came to create The Real Phil Show, a faith-based urban political talk show.

At Scott Circle Communications, we have a strong history of advocating for clients working on behalf of women’s issues - and we’re also a proud woman-owned business. So in celebration of Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day, we surveyed the team about some women champions they would like to recognize for making an impact (both near and far).
