#52 - How I Take Care of my Mental Health as a Busy Business Owner

Hi friends, I hope your 2023 is off to an amazing start! In today's episode I talk about how I take care of my mental health as a busy business owner and why I'm deciding to go back to my roots when it comes to my personal content creation and social media. I feel like the side of being a business owner people most often see from me is all the fun stuff. And don't get me wrong, it is SO freakin fun and I feel so blessed to be able to do what I do with the incredible team I have. However, there are a lot of aspects business owners don't talk about enough, so I wanted to share what I do to keep myself grounded. I hope you enjoy this episode and if you did, I'd love if you could share it on your Instagram stories and tag me, or share it with whoever you think needs to hear it!
