Reframing failure - mental health tips for entrepreneurs


Need 15 min of inspiration during your coffee break? Listen to my conversation with Beata Dobsa, founder and CEO of Tripful (formerly Travelli) . A travel buddy app for female travellers.


We discuss mental health of founders/entrepreneurs, in particular the aspects related to failure. Sit back, relax, grap your coffee and hear about:

๐Ÿ’Ž Keeping a "Book of confidence"
๐Ÿ’Ž Focusing more on your why and the people you are serving than your own ego.

This is what the emotional journey usually looks like

When you find yourself in the dark swamp of despair, itโ€™s important to surround yourself with people who are supportive and will help you climb up that hill. Having an environment that supports you is also crucial, it can be a co-working office (real or virtual) or having inspirational pictures or quotes in places where you will see them every day.

Having a coach or mentor is one of the most powerful things you can do for yourself and your business during tough times. I have helped many entrepreneurs through the emotional dark swamp and out on the other side where thereโ€™s light again.
