Women entrepreneurs follow a common path in terms of self-care: they tend to take care of everyone else before themselves. Such an approach is fine for a few weeks or even a few months, but we usually start to see some negative results after 6-12 months. We may start getting sick more often, or suddenly realize that we are 10 lbs heavier and have lost all of our muscle tone. Or maybe we’re just walking around angry, sad or depressed.
Such a physical and mental state is simply not good for business. We start to forget important client projects, yell at our employees, and generally perform at a lower level. That is why I’m planning the next Body > Mind > Business retreat for women entrepreneurs. It’s a chance to take time out from everyday stress and focus on the three critical elements of our success.
I firmly believe that our business health begins with our personal health. My quest for personal health is a constant up-and-down journey (as you know!). I honestly don’t know if there are any women (or humans!) out there who are always in the perfect state of balance. That would make us inhuman!
Please check out the details of our coming event – I would love to see you there!
