Online Course: Mental Health and Wellbeing For Business Owners

Approximately one half of entrepreneurs experience at least one mental health condition during their lifetimes.

The self-paced online course Mental Health and Wellbeing For Business Owners teaches all the basics for better understanding mental health and wellbeing. Using her own personal lived experience with depression and anxiety, Alison walks business owners through:

• basic mental health awareness

• understanding signs and symptoms of depression and anxiety

• practical tools for how we can better support our own mental health as business owners

• how we can be a good support to others in our personal or business lives who might be experiencing a decline in their mental wellbeing.

Reasons Why Mental Health & Wellbeing Should Be Priority For Business Owners:

1. Emotionally Draining - early years in business can be alienating, stressful, there is often a lack of support network and support resources.

2. Owners are "The Company"  - higher stakes, pressure to have all the answers, pressure to make the right decisions.

3. Identity and self-worth are connected to the business or company outcomes.

4. Financial risk and stress

5. Less focus on self-care

6. Isolation - long hours, and often lack of understanding from family/friends.

7. Less Access To Healthcare Supports - Some entrepreneurs and business owners have less access to comprehensive healthcare plans or Employee Assistance programs that can provide mental health supports.
