Self-Care Is Not Selfish Says eCommerce Entrepreneur
In this episode of the Rundown with Ramon, LeAnne Dolce of Dolce and Lay talks with Ramon about the ecommerce and self-care. They discuss advising against starting an online business just because you like it. Instead, the author suggests doing thorough research and being sure that there is a market for the product or service. Additionally, while having a detailed business plan is important, it is not always necessary. Sometimes it is better to launch the business and adjust as needed rather than striving for perfection before launching.
When it comes to self-care, the discussion encourages readers to focus on what truly makes them happy, rather than just getting enough sleep. Self-care is personal and not selfish; taking care of oneself is actually selfless, as it allows individuals to better care for others. It is also important to remember that one cannot give from an empty cup, and that self-care is about caring for the mind, body, and soul. The discussion emphasizes the importance of doing research and investing in the right team when starting an ecommerce business, and focusing on personal happiness and well-being through self-care. By following these tips, individuals can work towards building a successful business while also taking care of themselves.
