Business end of The Walt Disney Company/ Hurricane Milton but, will obv make up the costs for it though slowly & surely though: “Goldman Sachs analysts shared in a report released on today that closures & disruptions from the storm could, “cost $DIS between $150M+ & $200M+” this fiscal quarter”. 📈📉 “They also predicted Hurricane Milton would cause a decline in park attendance by approximately 6%” at Walt Disney World”. 🌀🏰🌐🌳🎥 “This could be the costliest hurricane to hit $DIS since Irma in 2017, which the company lost $100M+”. 💵💵💰💰 As I do expect this to reflect upon the wrap up year/Q4 earnings call next month from Iger & rest of the board though”.

😬 RESILIENCE & PIVOTING 🌀 With Hurricane Milton now a category 5 (the strongest category), firstly I am sending love to all my friends and family in Mexico and Florida 💕 🌀Secondly, a memory of how Hugo Loto and I lived through Hurricane Dean, also a category 5, when the eye of the storm hit the small Mexican Caribbean town we were living in, Mahahual 🇲🇽 🏃♀️💨We evacuated 3 hours north to Playa del Carmen, and returned a few days later to was complete devastation 😱 ❌No water, no electricity, roads blocked with trees down and dead animals and electrical poles and cables, buildings turned to rubble, trees ripped out… 🏡 Our house was one of the few still standing and with a rooftop rainwater system draining to the huge underground cistern, our house, with a friend’s generator, became shower central 🚿 and a place people could gather and support each other 📹🤿 From one day to the next our lives changed. The cruise ship port was destroyed, so no tourists would be arriving for a long time = no money ❌ My business of underwater videography and photography with a team of 6 couldn’t operate, Hugo didn’t have a dive centre or any divers to manage 😬 👩🎓 Soooo many learnings came from this and all of them GOOD! 😊 💃 Being surrounded by a strong positive community is essential to success 🤯 You can only control what you can control, so it’s no point worrying about things that haven’t happened or you can’t control 🏡 Pay for quality as it is worth it 🔄 When a big problem comes, it forces you to change your thinking, grow your resilience and try something new 🏝️🏡 🧦 We survived! I started a property management business, which grew to include holiday lets and a full blown estate agency and then a launderette Tides Business #Resilience #Pivot #Business #Mexico #Hurricane #ChangeIsGood #BusinessStrategy #BusinessStrategist #BusinessMental #BusinessCoach #BossyBecky #LotoLiving

“Rule Number 1: Never lose money. Rule Number 2: Never forget rule number one.” —Warren Buffet We are down here in Rincón, Puerto Rico🇵🇷. You may or may not have heard about Ernesto, the tropical storm now becoming a hurricane. We certainly pray that the next islands in its path and people are spared any significant damage. The boat that I'm standing in front of is usually out in the cove, ready to give sunset and snorkeling cruises. Katarina Sailing Tours, out of Rincón's Black Eagle Marina, definitely provides exceptional service. To prepare for the storm, they were ready to remove the boat from the cove. This boat is their livelihood, and they are protecting it at all costs. Rule #1 ✅ Rule #2 ✅ If you're looking for a great place to store some money, I recommend learning more about investing as a limited partner (LP) in real estate. There are no squirrels, snakes, or squatters to deal with. You get to enjoy the upside of real estate and cash flow from rents. We have a current opportunity for accredited investors Ask me how. #capitalturners #multifamily #assets

The time that Charley and Frances become wedding crashers…🌀   In September 2004, amidst hurricane season, a Whitehall, Pennsylvania couple planned to get married in Florida.  But their wedding dreams were dashed not once, but twice, by Hurricanes Charley and Frances.  Hearing about the couple's unfortunate circumstances, a Fort Lauderdale hotel stepped in to help.  The hotel threw the couple an all-expenses paid beach wedding for their closest friends and family.  They also included a honeymoon suite.   I was in attendance, alongside about a dozen local and national news outlets.   This was my first taste of hotel PR and a story going viral.  I was instantly hooked.   Lessons in PR:  Always look for the silver lining.   Adversity can unveil opportunities to showcase your brand's values and earn widespread attention.  Seize unexpected moments to tell your story. It might just capture the hearts of many.  P.S. Hurricane Ivan also threatened the couple’s wedding plans but, luckily, third time’s a charm.   What unexpected event turned into a PR opportunity for you?  #PRStrategy #BrandStorytelling #CrisisManagement #ViralMoments #PublicRelations
