The Healthy, Happy, and mostly Sane Entrepreneur
Are you an entrepreneur, solopreneur, consultant, or business owner who is tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted? Me too! Doing what you love for a living has so many awesome benefits, but side-effects of running your own business may include: not sleeping, eating crappy food, not exercising, feeling like you are going crazy, yelling at your computer (and sometimes your loved ones), loss of social life, imposter syndrome, Netflix binge watching, day drinking, and hysterical laugh-crying. Learn tools to help you feel more focused, in control, and calm - all while being healthier and less stressed. Stress Management Consultant and Coach Ellen Leonard, creator of The StressLess Method, shares her expertise and occasional sanity.
