Nobody said building a business was easy. But let’s be honest about how hard it really is and the price so many founders secretly pay. How many business owners do you know are on the brink of financial ruin and/or mental collapse? Money problems and mental health issues are intrinsically linked.

Entrepreneurs work long hours. We struggle with moments of anxiety and fear. We hear the success stories that bring so many entrepreneurs to hero status. At times some business owners, fear that everything might crumble. Admitting your weaknesses is taboo and “fake it till you make it” is literally killing so many. Not every business succeeds and not every business owner can be Elon Musk. Running a business is a stressful job that creates emotional turmoil. Entrepreneurs often juggle many roles and face countless setbacks--lost customers, disputes with partners, increased competition, staffing problems--all while struggling to make payroll. 

I am asking my fellow business owners this month to not neglect your health. Your company, your family and this world needs your vision and brilliance. Do your best in managing your health i.e., get some sleep, drink water, and go for a walk. 

I will be speaking with Tanisha Stewart from Kid Fit, LLC on June 8th & Felicia Reed from Felicia Reed Photography on June 22nd to discuss the myths and realities of Entrepreneurship on Instagram at 7pm. 

My June Lunch & Learn will be on the 23rd. Elisabeth Montes Hayden from Woman Want Wellness and I will be unraveling the differences between mental and emotional health around how you interact and identify with your finances. You can register for the webinar at amycobb.co. 

If I can be of service to your organization, please schedule a Discover Call with me!
