## What Jamie wrote

Hogan's writeup here is spot-on for what many people are going through in the workplace.

> The advice I share in that post is (I hope) still useful during this wild time, but there’s one new thing I want to call out: in addition to our needs around physical safety, **our [BICEPS core needs](https://www.palomamedina.com/biceps) are also threatened right now**. So let’s talk about what we can do for ourselves, and for those around us, to help address those core needs.

This BICEPS model is new to me, but it seems to fit the given situation really well. I can see this being very helpful to diagnose what may be causing some people to feel "off" or disconnected in some way that they may even not be aware of themselves. 👏
