"We need mental health professionals who understand the unique context of entrepreneurship."

As Shulamit Ber Levtov grew her own business and began to understand the unique mental and emotional stressors that come with entrepreneurship, she realized that there was something sorely missing from the entrepreneur’s toolbox: mental health professionals who understand business ownership and its impact on mental health. Today, Shula is the Entrepreneur's Therapist, working with business owners to mitigate the entrepreneurial mental health crisis and transform the entrepreneur ecosystem. Shula is a speaker, teacher, and consultant who works one on one with business owners to support their mental and emotional well being. Tune in to hear what Shula tells us about the most stressful part of entrepreneurship, the trouble with burning the candle at both ends, and the importance of practicing self-compassion for women entrepreneurs.
