How do you really feel about your business?
It's no secret that building, growing, and sustaining a business is full of ups, downs, twists, and turns due to the incredible opportunities that it offers you, along with the challenges and adversities.
The pressures to succeed. The misperceptions and misconceptions about success can have you feeling exhilaration one moment, doubt the next moment, fear the moment after that, anxiety after that leading to a host of other feelings you'll experience. They can come swiftly and unexpectedly. It can be a single, dominating feeling or a combination of feelings. What you're feeling can last a mere second or it can linger for a while.
Does succeeding have you feeling that you have to:
Fake it till you make it.
Be the rock in your family. Be the pillar of your community.
Offer services, programs, or products that just don't light you up because that what "sells."
Make lots of money.
Prove that you deserve to be in that space or a seat at the table.
Work hard
Sacrifice
Don't rock the boat, just be grateful for what you have.
Motivate yourself.
Be better than everybody else.
Be the only in your space.
You have to have all the "qualifications" before you can help others.
You have to be "certain" before you can proceed.
Keep going, even though you're not happy.
Keep going, even though you're exhausted.
As a Black and Brown Woman, you're bravely stepping into and claiming spaces where you don't see YOU and YOU don't feel safe enough to be and share YOU. YOU have felt alone and lonely in your navigating your entrepreneurship journey, because knowing where to turn to get the help you need, desire, and deserve can be confusing, daunting, and at times disheartening.
Worse, you've been lead to believe that it's what you do that makes the difference because feelings are messy, feelings don't lead to results.
So you find yourself trying to "manage" what you're feeling and others' feelings, as you handle your various responsibilities in your role as a Founder and/or CEO, to get your business up and running smoothly, keep it that way, or scratch the itch to do something new.
Yet you're compromising your already compromised wellbeing. The irony here is that your wellbeing is what led you to entrepreneurship, but deep down you're feeling unhappy, and/or unfulfilled despite your best efforts, and trying your best to handle the stressors you're experiencing whether you're "succeeding" or not. I can relate because I've spent a lot of time feeling this way about my business.
