What’s up! Welcome to another episode of the TrepTECH podcast! In this episode, Host Airial Re’nal and her trusty sidekick Scott Doucet hit the mics to discuss Entrepreneurial Loneliness. The higher you climb, the less people will be able to relate to you, and as the famous saying goes: It’s lonely at the top. Things like a lack of family support, friends dropping off, and the obstacles of running a business in general can really add up, and without the proper pieces in place, these things can break you down. Airial and Scott share their experiences with loneliness running their online businesses, and how they’ve been able to turn things around for themselves! If you’re someone who is starting to see the fruits of all of your hard work, and have no one to share it with, or you’re just starting your business and people are acting some kind of way about it, aren’t supportive, or have just completely ghosted you? This episode might be one for your ears
