We’re brought up with this crazy work ethic of hustle, hustle, burn, burn, but you know to your core that it’s burning you out. The sleepless nights, the struggle, the stress, they’re all coming home to roost. And it’s left you wondering how you’re going to break through to the next level when you’re already working longer and harder than anyone else you know. Even with your insane working hours you still feel like you’re never doing enough. The responsibility to fulfil expectations is overwhelming, but you’ve been at this level for what seems like forever and you’ve stopped making headway. You feel like you’ll never break through the glass ceiling. Your upper limit has been reached but you still want more. I was an Internationally recognised, award winning, type A, high achiever at the top of my profession. Reaching goals had never been a problem – in fact that was always easy, but for me, having everything I wanted came with a very heavy price tag. Living with high stress caused me to develop a rare digestive disorder that was slowly starving me to death. I was pretty much bedridden for nearly five years and that gave me time to think. Although I was very proud of my accomplishments, the reality was that I probably wouldn’t be here for my children’s next birthday. I realized that I’d made a choice between getting to the top of my career and being alive to enjoy it. After exhausting all that medical science had to offer, I searched for alternative solutions for my condition and 5 years after first getting sick, I finally found the answers I was looking for in the form of a chiropractor who literally gave me my life back. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/journeytoentrepreneurship/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/journeytoentrepreneurship/support
