Watch.
As we see more people choosing to start their own businesses and explore the possibilities of entrepreneurship today’s guest is the perfect person to share with you why at any stage of your life you need to be proactive about building good, strong health.
“Why are business owners investing in everything else, but not in taking care of their health to feel strong and healthy now but also for the future, especially when you’re trying to build a business that is going to make money for a long time to come?”
— Nicola Mercer
“We don’t hear about the health side of things. We constantly hear about entrepreneurs going to the gym all of the time, getting up at 4am. It makes you believe that to be an entrepreneur you have to do these things.”
