Mental health of business owners during covid

🤔What about the mental health of the hundreds of thousands of business owners out there who are also struggling with their mental health?

They can’t just get a sick note from the doctor & take a month or two off, however much they are desperately want to. Most wouldn’t have a business to come back to if they did.

Many are worried how they will survive 2021.
Many are worried about how to pay the bills.
Many are worried about how they will feed their families - especially those excluded from government help.

Most have no one to confide in.

There is no doubt in my mind that COVID will have a huge impact on mental health for years. This is just the beginning.

My approach to business coaching has always been slightly different to most. I’d even go as far as to say that I’m a holistic business coach. For me, your mental health is as important as your business health. If your head is straight, everything else is easier.

A good coach (like me 😊) will offer you both the business support & mental health support that you need. They will be there at the end of the phone when you are worried or need to rant.

What are your thoughts on this? Any business owners managed to take time off due to MH? Any of you wanted to but couldn’t?
