It can be tempting and sometimes easy as an entrepreneur to see someone you admire on social media and thing that you should do what they’re doing. Or act how the act.
 
As an entrepreneur, the best thing you can do is lean into your own uniqueness and be who you’re created to be.
 
It can feel scary and vulnerable to stand out of the crowd and be different or do things differently. But the right people will find you and become your loyal audience.

Episode 30: How to Not Be Constantly Stressed as an Entrepreneur with Dr. Dawn Allen

November 17th, 2021  |  30 mins 11 secs

entrepreneur, entrepreneurship, female entrepreneurs, women in business

Many entrepreneurs find themselves in a constant state of hustle and acting from a sympathetic stress response. As working women, we think it’s normal, but the truth is that it’s actually killing us.
We are not designed to be stressed out of our minds, toxic, inflamed, malnourished, unrested and somehow thrive at the same time.  If we want to stay healthy, balanced, and thrive on this journey, we have to tend to our autonomic nervous system.
In this interview, Dr. Dawn Allen explains the difference between the parasympathetic and the sympathetic nervous system, what the signs are of living in sympathetic mode (fight or flight), the importance of tending to our parasympathetic nervous system (rest, digest, calmness & healing), and how we can apply these principles as ambitious women.
