2023 projections, everlasting resilience 

Hey Baltimore. Today's prompt is borne of the likely frustrating news, reported by various outlets this past weekend, that several leading economists predict a recession in the US next year.
 
For all the owners of small businesses without VC backing that survived the pandemic: What lessons did you learn that you feel make you recession-proof (or at least -resistant)?
 
 What tactics did you use during leaner times? If a recession like the projected one actually does hit, what has the pandemic taught you that you'll apply?
 
Overall, how do you keep from going under in hard times? Let us know by replying to this email or sending a note to , anytime.
