Did you know your entrepreneurial workplace could be more toxic than the workplace you left due to toxicity?

The reality is that everyone has mental health needs just like everyone has physical health needs and the reality is that regardless if a person believes that they won’t experience issues, it doesn’t make it so. As a result, that entrepreneurial workplace has the opportunity to do more damage to a person's well being than they realize.

So, how does an entrepreneur hold themselves accountable to the fact that they will experience challenges that will affect their mental health, because through the design of being an entrepreneur, in the first place, they aren’t actually accountable to anyone else but themselves.

In this episode, we discuss how one entrepreneur's plans to mitigate gradually onset challenges with mental health will differ from another, but the process to start is the exactly the same to create that plan.

In this episode of Confronting Your Chaos, we go through part 4 which is the conclusion of the Clarity Catalyst Process -- the approach that I use with clients to help them determine the narratives that serve them so they can bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

This is my favourite step, and proves to be the hardest piece to to go through with clients.

It often challenges clients about things that will make them so resistant to what I am saying that it could make them feel defensive, and at the same time challenges them to figure out things that will be so enlightening, that they will feel like the biggest weight is taken off their shoulders.

I go through a personal story that impacted my decision to become an entrepreneur and to demonstrate how every moment, every situation has more than one narrative, and you will need to choose which one dictates your life. If you would like to learn more about how to apply this process to your narratives, send me a message at Sarah@SarahKhan.org or via DM at Sarah Khan | LinkedIn

In this episode of Confronting Your Chaos, we go through part 3 of the Clarity Catalyst Process, which is the approach that I use with clients to help them determine the narratives that serve them so they can bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

The stories that made you are based on events of your past that shaped who you are today. For example, if you say that you're shy, we dive into figuring why that became your narrative.

Sometimes this steps involves remembering moments that are not pleasant so remember to access medical and professional advice and support if you are taken hostage by remembering your past.
