Entrepreneurship & Depression

from House of Bricks Hosted by Adam House

Are you depressed? What does that even mean for us as entrepreneurs? 💼 In order to win it all, you have to bet it all—so what did you expect? This isn't about putting labels on yourself. It means facing the colossal reality that 9 out of 10 businesses fail in the first year. It's about acknowledging the often overlooked collateral damage—on our well-being, our teams, and our loved ones. We pride ourselves on our tenacity and vision, sometimes to the point where we don't even see the toll it's taking. ⭐What You’ll Learn: Understanding the Mental Struggle: Explore the stark truth that 9 out of 10 businesses fail in their first year and the psychological impact this has on entrepreneurs.

The Power of Community: Discover how connecting with fellow entrepreneurs can turn your darkest hours into opportunities for innovation and success. Strategic Resilience: Learn how to reshape your narrative from one of isolation to one of collective resilience and breakthroughs. Every entrepreneur faces moments of doubt and "depression," but these challenges can become your competitive edge. In this session, we’ll share strategies and insights on using each obstacle as a stepping stone and why the journey is best tackled with a supportive community.
