Improving employees mental health has been linked to increasing productivity. However, it's not always that simple to know what to do, let alone how much it might cost. In this episode, we'll talk to Ngozi Cadmus, CEO of Happiworkers and Frontline Therapist, to discover how her startup is planning on keeping teams healthy and thriving. Ngozi will also let us in on her bootstrapping secret and why focusing on "SALES FIRST" rather than "investment first" is a smart "investment - no pun intended" for startup growth. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like the show!

Do you know how you unconsciously negatively influence sales calls? Is it really as simple as it seems to prioritise your mental health as an entrepreneur? The rollercoaster journey of entrepreneurship requires unwavering resilience, relentless determination, and continually stepping outside of one's comfort zone.

In this captivating episode, we have the pleasure of talking to Lynn Swain, who will help you with practical tools and brain hacks to stay healthy as you're growing your business. In this engaging discussion, we'll explore: 🔴How busy entrepreneurs can make space for reflection and personal growth 🔴 How you can "explore" your entrepreneurial brain and identify patterns that are slowing you down 🔴 Say hello to "Brain-Savvy Selling" and goodbye to unconsciously sabotaging yourself during sales calls 🔴 Building trust and human connection in an increasingly physically disconnected world 🔴 Practical tips and advice on how to become more resilient as an entrepreneur 🔴 Lynn's personal journey building Symbiota Leadership Institute ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like the show!
