06 - Grace Under Pressure: Entrepreneurship and Mental Health [Report Card Grade: B-]

  • Summary

  • Sharing my personal struggles with depression, guilt, and motivation, and how they have intersected with my business journey. Hear about the unexpected twists and turns, from the traumatic birth of my son, dealing with job loss while on maternity leave, to the pressure of launching a new business. I reflect on the lessons learned from underestimating projects, adjusting my prices, and what I am doing with unfinished tasks.

    In the second part of the episode, I dive into the realities of balancing life and work. Managing depression while running a business, and I share my experience of feeling overwhelmed and extending grace to myself when I don't meet my own expectations. I emphasize the importance of recognizing that we all have lives outside of our business and the necessity of taking care of ourselves. Listen in as I give an honest, heartfelt account of this past week.
