Ep. 54 Kelly Metras and Kelly Bush explore the inner narratives and doubts that small business owners face. They discuss the pressure of maintaining a positive facade, the loneliness of entrepreneurship, and the importance of acknowledging mental health struggles. The conversation covers overcoming impostor syndrome, managing customer reviews, and recognizing that not every venture can succeed. They emphasize the significance of self-care, seeking help when needed, and letting go of unattainable perfection. Listeners are encouraged to release their own self-limiting thoughts, embracing resilience and adaptability in their entrepreneurial journey.
