prioritizing your mental health to wealth in your business
As entrepreneurs, growing our own businesses comes with a lot of stress and uncertainty. As much as we want to grow, make more money and create more impact our priority has to be personal, our own emotional and mental health.
As entrepreneurs and creatives, our health is our wealth. The better we are, the better we can show up and perform in our businesses. Our health is wealth. That’s exactly why I had therapist, Ariane Byron, who specifically works with and caters to the needs of entrepreneurs on The Journey with Blue.
She shares mindfulness activities that will support our mental and emotional well-being in our lives which will lead to financial wealth in our businesses.
As entrepreneurs and creative minds, we know the hustle can bring a lot of stress and a load of uncertainty. We're always aiming to grow our businesses, make more money, and make a real impact, but it's easy to forget that our top priority should be taking care of ourselves, especially our emotional and mental well-being.
Here's the deal: our health is our true wealth in this game. The better we feel, both mentally and physically, the better we can show up and take our businesses to the next level.
That's exactly why I brought in the amazing therapist, Ariane Byron, who specializes in working with entrepreneurs, onto ‘The Journey with Blue’. She not only inspired but she shared practical mindfulness tools and activities that we can use in our everyday lives. These activities aren't just about feeling good; they're about creating a solid foundation for success in our lives and businesses.
Ariane’s Top Tips:
• Be Honest With Yourself: The most important person to be real with, is yourself. Take time in silence and journal to be real with yourself to write out your thoughts and how you are feeling.
• Give Yourself Compassion: We all have a high expectation of what we want to accomplish and where we think we should be on this ‘Journey’ but we have to show ourselves grace and compassion for where we are.
• Identify Exactly How You Are Feeling: Check in and really identify what emotion you are feeling and what is triggering it. You can use an emotions wheel to help you identify your root feeling.
• Get Help: You are not meant to do this work alone. Find people, communities and/or a licensed therapist in your area that can support you in your emotional and mental health.
