COVID-19 circuit breaker measures came into effect in Singapore on 7 April. It was a Tuesday, the day we host our weekly “Munch with Jen and Ben” talk show. With the short notice given with the announcement of the stricter measures, we rolled with the punches to change the format of the show to ensure safety and compliance with the measures. 

The #MunchwithJenandBen show, a collaboration between Asia Advisers Network, Jensen Siaw International and Munch Munch, was conceived to bring positivity and inspiration to our community when coronavirus first reared its ugly head, and we had been emphasising the need to keep our chins up and continue to adapt to keep moving forward.

So Jensen Siaw, Ken Kish and I together with our teams decided to walk the talk and went ahead with the show in its new format. 

When it was easier to just "take a break", we did frantic testing over the weekend and even in the morning before the show started. We adapted and rolled with it and, guess what, we got our highest views yet on the very first day of the show. (It usually takes a few days to gain traction.)

So, whatever comes your way, adapt and roll with it. You may be surprised by the results, too, by trying something totally new because you were forced by circumstances!
