Letâs face it.
Running your own business can be exciting, challenging, empowering...
- and lonely.
And if youâve been in practice for a while, you know what I mean when I say that friends and family â unless they are entrepreneurs themselves â may have trouble understanding what itâs like to stand in your shoes.
And yet, you need people around you who DO get it. You need peope who, like you, are on their own journey of success, who get the ups and downs that a life of entrepreneurship inevitably requires.
You need your own wise tribe.
You need the company of entrepreneurial peers who will challenge you when you get in your own way, support you when the doubts kick in, and celebrate like crazy when you get a win.
So letâs explore that.
This week on the podcast, weâre talking about the power of community, and its impact on your mental health, creativity and your overall business success.
In this episode, youâll learn:
- Why talking with your family and friends about your business isnât enough.
- The harder way that some relationships may change as your business grows (and you grow, too.)
- Tips for how to find and cultivate your own wise tribe of healthy, success oriented peers who can walk beside you along the way.
And more.
Because I donât know where Iâd be if I hadnât made it a point to surround myself with success-oriented people over the years.
And if youâre serious about building the business you dream of, you need those kind of people around you too.
Give it a listen.

P.S. If youâd like to just see what itâs even like to be in the same room with business owners like you - who get you in a completely different way - Iâve got a workshop coming up in December that you might want to know about. Youâll hear a little about that in the podcast too.
Think about it! :)

SAVE THE DATE!
Ever wished you had a place where you could speak freely about what itâs like to run your own practice? Where you could get feedback about strategy or clarity on your most important goals?
What if there was a way you could talk through big ideas out loud with other practice owners who get you like no one else?
Consider joining us for OnPurpose 2025, the annual deep-dive strategic planning workshop I host each year in December.
This yearâs workshop will be on Friday, December 6, from 1-5 eastern, and itâs online so you can join us from anywhere.
You donât have to commit now. You canât! It's not open yet! đ
But if you want to be notified when I open the doors for registration in November - so you have a choice - you should at least get your name on the waiting list, donât you think? ;)
Click here to do that, and Iâll make sure you get the news when it comes.
