Blythe Jack, partner at TSG Consumer Group, joins Shopcast to talk about the psychology of the consumer and how it affects retailers. What is a 'fear-based society' and what does it mean for what consumers are searching for? There is a linkage to psychological needs and how it's manifesting in the market - these needs drive consumer behavior, and how they spend their money.

However, there are also other sectors such as the pet industry that are being affected. Mi
