Episode 51 - Dawn Taylor - Unmasking Trauma in Entrepreneurship: How you are getting in your own way
In this episode, we engaged in a thought-provoking conversation with Dawn Taylor about how past experiences and trauma often subconsciously influence entrepreneurial tendencies and decision-making. Dawn candidly shared her journey of overcoming trauma and how it has shaped her business path. We analyzed various aspects affecting solopreneurs and startup owners, like fear of rejection, invisibility, and motivation issues. Additionally, we delved into the implications of the 'I am the business' mindset, and the constant struggle of balancing personal issues with business challenges. Dawn also offered practical advice on dealing with rejection, maintaining motivation, and wisely utilizing one's energy (or 'beans' as we referred to it) for business growth.
Here is what we covered:
Understanding How Trauma Influences Business Decisions
Fear of Rejection in Business Interactions
Identifying Energy Drains and Resource Allocation
Unearthing Personal Blocks and Biases in Business
Decoding the Consequences of Business Attachment
