Business With Chronic Illness: Women Entrepreneurs Navigating Burnout & Autoimmune Conditions

Let’s talk about the mental mask we put on. This is mental health awareness month and I have a special guest on the show, her name is Kieara and she’s a fellow podcaster. Her podcast show For Realness Sake in her words, "Is like a comedic pep talk with myself and other unconventional women, who are not afraid to STAND OUT and SPEAK UP.”

So, of course, I wanted this beautiful soul on the show. Kieara and I talk about our journey's with mental health, how covid19 has affected it, how positive thinking is a practice, and so much more. I'm super excited about this bonus episode to give awareness to mental health. Check out the show notes to find resources to help with mental health. and visit http://www.shescrafted.com

There’s a foundation to creating a thriving business and it starts with a healthy version of both body, mind and lifestyle. That’s why I am so excited to have Angel Scott on She's Crafted To Thrive Podcast. She’s a nationally Certified Personal Trainer, Holistic Nutritionist, and Lifestyle Expert. Having lived a very active lifestyle her whole life, Angel was kind of taken by surprise with an Autoimmune disease diagnosis in 2016. Looking back she realized she excused away a few red flags that could have alerted her to act sooner. With a new perspective on her health, the focus was not just on nutrition and movement but now more than ever, lifestyle. This made her take a hard look at her friends, family, business clients, and everything in-between. If they were not healthy vibes, they had to go. With over 90% of illnesses caused by stress, Angel got inspired to make the changes needed to adjust to her new reality.

She’s on a mission to show women that lifestyle directly affects our health. She wants people to know that what we look like is not direct representation health. So tune in if you want to hear the 3 symptoms that Angel dismissed at first, that were key to her Graves disease diagnoses and learn how she’s approaching her health and business holistically.

If you have felt alone, stuck, or overwhelmed, then this episode is for you. In life, we all experience so many different life hurdles, and in this episode we talk about just one of them: chronic illness. There are so many women who are affected by endometriosis, and it has been my goal to share the journey and the faces behind the statistics of 1 in 10.

What does 1 in 10 mean? Well, one in ten women are diagnosed with endometriosis. I am sure this ratio would be even more shocking if more of us spoke up and shared our pain. There is a stigma around women and our reproductive systems, which is ridiculous, considering mankind would not be here without it. But I digress, this is not a social problem I’m trying to bring light to, my goal is to help women who are suffering in the shadow, Know that you can be heard and know they are not alone. I know that once I started to share my journey of living with Endometriosis, that's when I started to get the help and support I needed. There is no shame in chronic illness; it is not our fault, but there is hope. There is a sister, mother, grandmother, aunt, or friend who is suffering in silence and wondering how to make it through and I hope you share this with them. But if YOU are them, I hope you know you are not alone!

I want to say a special thank you to Amber Lashawn of Brand Girl Magic for sharing her journey with endometriosis. After leaving her dream job with the Tampa Bay Rays because of her pain and just trying to keep up physically was impossible, endometriosis inspired her to become an entrepreneur. Having a business for herself meant more control. Although her body was fighting her she knew she could still use her brain.

This episode keeps it real while we discuss the mental, emotional, and physical toll that this disease can have, but we also share what’s helping us cope and the mindset we’ve chosen to take to thrive through this chronic illness.

✨ Thank you for listening.

In this episode of She's Crafted To Thrive our guest is Mehnaz Khan, an artist, color consultant and the owner of Mehnaz Khan Studio. It’s 2020 and that could mean that you are looking to rebrand, redecorate, or do something new that involves color. And’s why I’m excited to have Mehnaz on the show. She started her business after using art to help her out of a difficult season in her own life. Now shes using art and color to help overwhelmed moms to have a purposeful positive outlook. So often today we take our cues on what’s trending based on what’s happening on Pinterest but Mehnaz believes that we should be taking our cues from nature and what we need when it comes to decor and branding. I tend to agree with her. She shares how art needs to be mindful and intentional because the outcome affects the subconscious mind. Tune in to this episode if you are looking for some great tips on how to use color shift your mindset and attract your ideal customers.
