Being healthy and trying to build a business is hard enough. Building a business and trying to manage a chronic health condition is torture, but it doesn't make it an impossible task.
Navigating this is quite easy. To start with, you don't work a 9-5 so you have a flexible schedule that allows you to catch your breath, and against general views, being a business owner with a chronic health condition is easier to manage than having to work round the clock.
The key word is understanding the stages your body goes through, finding a balance, and maintaining it. This is not a journey you could decide to go through by yourself, you need help from people who have successfully made this work for themselves. So, in this episode, I have given step-by-step guidelines on how you can find a balance between building and running a successful business and managing a health condition.
Key Talking Points of The Episode:
[03:30] The crazy dynamics of a 9-5
[08:20] Guidelines to having a healthy business life
[14:20] How to manage the challenges of bad health and still keep business running
[18:50] The importance of approaching things with a positive energy
