What an incredible seminar on “The hidden pressures of being Self-Employed, and how to manage them” followed with the launch of ‘Self Employed, the Forgotten Community’ in the evening.
I was honoured to be a contributing author and speaker, sharing insights from my chapter, "Well-being... or is your Well Running Dry?"
As self-employed people, we often become so focused on serving others, meeting deadlines, growing our businesses, and keeping everything moving that we forget to check in with the most important asset in our business, ourselves!
During my talk, I spoke about the hidden pressures of self-employment, the importance of protecting our well-being and why success should never come at the expense of our health, peace, or happiness.
One question I left the audience with was:
"How well am I?"
Not how busy.
Not how productive.
Not how successful.
But how well. How am I actually doing personally, emotionally and mentally.
Because there is a difference between functioning and being-well!
Thank you to everyone who attended, supported the event, purchased the book, and contributed to such an important conversation.
