297: Prioritize and Protect Your Mental Health as Your Most Valuable Asset with Melissa Kay

Profit by Design

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we at Tap the Potential take care to greatly emphasize the mental health of entrepreneurs. Your business significantly impacts your mental health! For today’s episode, I’m joined by a very special guest, Melissa Kay, our Lead Strategist at Tap the Potential. We are digging into what we need to be aware of to protect our mental health as our businesses grow–and we aren’t going after baseline mental health. We want you to thrive! If you want to learn more about enduring the challenges of entrepreneurship with thriving mental health, join us!

Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production.
