Entrepreneurship is powerful, but it can also feel deeply isolating, especially when you’re in health and wellness. If you’ve ever closed your clinic, sat in your car, and thought, “Who can I talk to about this?” you’re not alone.

In this episode of Power Moves, I’m opening up about the real epidemic nobody talks about in our space: loneliness. From decision fatigue to carrying clients’ emotional burdens to having a vision too big to explain to your family, I’ve been there. And I want you to know you don’t have to carry it alone.

I share my personal story of building businesses that looked successful on the outside while I struggled silently on the inside. From crying in front of my gym to realizing the toll stress took on my health, I had to learn that isolation doesn’t mean failure. It means you’re pioneering. And there are ways to move through it.

Why This Matters to You

Buried under decisions no one else understands? You’re not just running a business, you’re carrying the weight of payroll, patients, and staff on your shoulders. That pressure can feel crushing if you don’t have an outlet.

Absorbing your clients’ pain? Whether it’s someone grieving a loss or battling chronic illness, you can’t pour from an empty cup. Without support, you risk burnout and resentment toward the very people you’re trying to help.

Holding a vision too big for others to see? When friends and family don’t get it, you might shrink your dreams or second-guess your path. But your vision deserves a safe space to grow, free from judgment.

Loneliness isn’t just uncomfortable, it stalls growth. The longer you hold it all in, the harder it is to show up as your best self. That’s why building systems of support is a non-negotiable part of entrepreneurship.
