Mike has been managing the Barrhaven Kardish location for three years, but he’s been with the Ottawa company for much longer than that.
He got his start with Kardish 10 years ago, working at the Merivale store. He was inspired to start working there because of his background in sports.
At the time Mike was playing hockey, hardball baseball, tennis, golf, and regularly rollerblading. Nutrition wasn’t something he was overly concerned about, but since joining Kardish it’s become a staple.
In a time of so much upheaval, adjusting to working from home is anything but easy. It’s always challenging to juggle personal and professional responsibilities while also caring for your own well-being—and with the future so uncertain, it has become more difficult than ever.
We want to help. Here are a few of our top tips to keep your stress levels low and your spirits high right now.
