Episode 10: Why Entrepreneurs are Prone to Anxiety and Mental Health Issues
72% of Entrepreneurs have some sort of struggle with a mental health issue.
72%!!!!!!
That statistic is pretty shocking.
What's even more shocking, is all of the things that make you a "good" entrepreneur are also the things that make you prone to mental health things! What!!!???
But we are not all doomed - I want you to know that.
This information isn't to scare you. Its to inform you. I think its healthy to be aware!
Which is why I will be sharing the 5 reasons why Entrepreneurs struggle with mental health issues

You can be a solo entrepreneur without feeling like you're alone! I am here to help. I am here to walk with you. I experienced panic attacks in 2008/2009. There was one time my friends even had to call the paramedics!
And before I know it, an ambulance is awaiting outside and the paramedics are rushing in.
My body calmed down after a bit and I opted to go to urgent care instead of the ER.
They checked my heart, my lungs, my life. I was perfectly healthy! On the outside... But what was happening...well that was something entirely different. I came home, went to my primary care physician and on Good Friday, I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Panic Attacks.
There is more to this story...and that's what I want to share in my upcoming training (deets are coming)
But We HAVE TO talk about this! It is actually not uncommon to experience some level of anxiety as an entrepreneur
I am watching people I love and people I admire struggle in this season with it.
For some, it's been reoccurring. For others, it came almost out of the blue.
But, the worse thing we can do is ignore it!
I've talked about this publicly before, so it's not like some deep dark secret.
But I also know that I haven't talked about it nearly enough.
Partially because I am not a person who glories in the struggle. But it is a part of my story. It is a part of my journey. It is a part of why I am so passionate about the things I am today.
And now seeing so many people online struggle with the thing I once struggled with, I just really feel led to talk, to share, to help.
I want you to know, I hear you. I am with you. You are not alone.
