Description

Building a business as a woman entrepreneur with chronic illness comes with realities that most business advice never addresses — burnout, unpredictable energy, and the need to put health first while still wanting meaningful growth.
Business With Chronic Illness is a globally ranked podcast featuring honest conversations with chronic illness entrepreneurs, founders, and CEOs navigating business growth while living with chronic illness and autoimmune conditions. Through real stories and practical insight, the show explores how people build businesses that are sustainable, simple, and aligned with their health, not at the expense of it.

Each episode centers on conversations rooted in real experience, covering:
- Health-First Business Growth: growing at a pace that honors your body
- Burnout & Capacity: navigating energy, flare-ups, and rest without guilt
- Simple & Sustainable Business: stripping away unnecessary complexity
- Success Stories: real people redefining what success looks like with chronic illness

This podcast is for entrepreneurs and founders who are:
- Living with chronic illness or autoimmune disease
- Burned out from hustle culture or one-size-fits-all business advice
- Building, growing, or reimagining a business that must work with real life
- Looking for stories and strategies that feel honest, grounding, and possible

Expect thoughtful, grounded conversations, not hype. This is a space for nuance in strategies and execution, for reflection and learning through real stories, not for pressure or performative success.
