Episode 403: Feeling Alone in Business? How to Find Your People


Listen Later

Entrepreneurship is lonely—but it doesn’t have to be.

In this video, Dr. Sherry Walling dives into one of the most overlooked challenges in the entrepreneurial journey: finding your people.

Starting, growing, and even exiting a business can be incredibly isolating. That loneliness can quietly erode both your mental health and your ability to lead. In this episode, you'll learn:

 

  • The difference between networking and true friendship
  • Why proximity, attention, and shared play are essential to adult friendships
  • How relationships are foundational to both mental health and business success
  •  

    Whether you’re craving deeper connections, wondering why your friendships feel thin, or simply looking to feel less alone in your work—this one’s for you.
