Running a business can be rocky at times, with extreme highs and lows all in a single day, (maybe even within an hour)! In this episode, Chrissy sits down with Kathryn Short, co-owner and co-founder of Reedy River Counseling and a Licensed Professional Counselor, to discuss the mental and physical toll of entrepreneurship.
They explore practical strategies for managing stress, the impact of nutrition on focus, mood, and productivity, and how to build a lifestyle that supports long-term well-being. If you need a reminder—and actionable steps—on maintaining your mental health while running a business, this episode is for you. Kathryn has the unique insight of being a counselor and a business owner, so is able to approach this topic from both angles with useful insight- give it a listen!
