We were taught to run businesses like men.
To compete against other women.
To use caffeine, sugar, alcohol, THC, and medications to get through our workdays.
To not show emotion.
We gain weight and try methods that are harmful to our health.
When we experience loss, a health scare, or get a diagnosis, we usually hide it from others. Some of us avoid intimacy because we’re experiencing a low s*x drive and think something is wrong with us.
Some experience anxiety, depression, or brain fog and tell themselves everyone lives with them and that it’s normal.
Most of us go to google to search for answers to our health symptoms.
Most women randomly buy supplements from ads hoping the promises will work.
Most women are secretly exhausted (or just plain cranky) and feel worried that they’ve taken on too much or don’t have what it takes.

It's time for us to help one another change this narrative.

Why do I choose to support, those who identify as a woman, in becoming a thriving leader? The Dalai Lama said "The world will be saved by the western woman," during the Vancouver Peace Summit 2009. Supporting women is the way forward and the data is clear:

There are nearly 13 million women-owned businesses in the U.S.

Over the past two decades, the number of women entrepreneurs has increased by 114%. Women-owned businesses employ almost 9.4 million people (as of 2019).

1,817 new women-owned businesses were created per day in the U.S. in 2019.

The average female business owner has operated their company for 11 years.

Taking into consideration the small business, 36% of them are owned by women worldwide.

Women will continue to help other women. 65%of female small business owners know another small business owner and 91% of those solicit advice from other female business owners.

AND this is where I come in. Everyone talks about business and how to support women in business. Fantastic. AND someone needs to start talking more about utilizing the power of one's health and wellbeing as part of the strategy to growing their business.

BURNOUT is NOT an option here.
Let's do this, together.
