Three Ways You’re Getting In Your Own Way As a Business Owner
As a business owner, what’s your greatest asset?
Are You a Robot?
I’m not talking about whether a program thinks you’re a bot for failing to recognize stoplights.
I’m asking how much of your life is on automatic pilot?
How often do you go from bed to emails to “social” feeds to work to emails to working out to “social” feeds to emails to bed?
Paying It Forward for Women Entrepreneurs
November 14th is International Girls Day, and though we might not know exactly what kinds of jobs will be available when they’re ready to work, we do know what pressures they’re likely to face.
It’s a great opportunity for women business owners, including those who don’t have children, to pass knowledge on to the next generations. And if anyone helped you on your path, it’s also a great time to pay it forward.
Can Meditation Work For You?
Some of us logical types have a hard time with meditation. It can seem pretty woo-woo, especially when you take a look at some of the people who practice it daily or those who call themselves meditation gurus.
Healthy Brain, Healthy Business
Is your New Year’s Resolution for 2025 to get healthy?
Many people think about health in terms of physical health: to get stronger, be able to climb stairs, lose weight, run a marathon, etc. All good goals, especially kicking them off in January, which is National Staying Healthy Month.
But good health isn’t just physical.
What If We Focused on Living Well Instead of Just Living Long?
I’m a member of a number of Gen X Facebook groups, some of which are devoted to women. One of them asked what beauty procedures people were doing to stay young. I’m not shaming anyone who’s relying on plastic surgery and fillers and the rest to look younger.
But I did say I focus more on preparing my body and mind for age.
Grief, Loss, and Productivity
If you have a mental health condition, you’re in good company. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and fortunately, more people are talking about mental health, especially when it comes to grief and loss.
Why Is Mental Health Important for Business Owners?
Two women, both age 77, both with cancer. One lives independently in a senior living community. She’s a bit frail and on oxygen, but able to get around by herself and have lunch with a friend. The other is in hospice with a few months left to live, incapable of eating any kind of solid food since she lost her last tooth several years ago.
Guess which one took care of her mental health along the way.
