Do you know that running your social enterprise with an entrepreneurial mindset costs you time, money, and health?
Having an entrepreneurial mindset is vital to starting an impact business and being resilient enough to keep it going despite the countless bumps in the road, yet it can only take us so far. The only way to take our social enterprise to the next level WITHOUT losing our mental and physical health is by presenting ourselves, behaving, and becoming a CEO.
