Entrepreneurial Anxiety, Apathy and Depression (Virtual Meetup), with Melanie Ginsburg and Samantha Alvarez
"...I will say of depression, not true depression, anxiety, just very unpleasant while I was running my business and had to learn very fast how to swim. So now I'm hoping to teach these lessons. I'm hoping to catch them before the shipwreck, so to speak. But during is also, you know, if I can pull myself out, you can pull yourself out. So wherever you're at right now, know that it will be okay. And you can do it..."
Episode Highlights
Why More now
- Due to corona worries, lockdown constrictions and economic recession for some businesses.
- Everyone is grieving the major changes that are occurring
- Stages of Grief: DABDA - Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance (not necessarily in that order)
- See Sam’s article for more details and help on quarantine related mental health issues. In the Resources section at the bottom. From that article:
- 30% of people in Quarantine become clinically depressed
- 30% become clinically diagnosable with PTSD (with some overlap of people getting both, of course),
- and that these symptoms last at least one month after quarantine.
What is Ideal mental health
- Ideal mental health
- Resilient - bounce back from setbacks,
- Flexible - fast to pivot
- Calm, focused
- Joyful
- Connected to spirit, intuitive
- Social. EQ. SQ. (Emotional Intelligence, Spiritual Intelligence)
- A healthy relationship with self
- For ideal mental health, the positive attitude should be at a good level, so that the individual feels happy with themselves.
- Self-actualization. Self-actualization is being in a state of contentment, feeling that you have become the best you can be.
- Autonomy. This is having independence and self-reliance.
- Connection with nature...outward and inward focus balanced
Barriers
The Creeping Problem
- Mental illness creeps up on people
- Distractions hide it
- Dissociated
- In the Matrix = “normal” (desirable) to be busy
- Not socially acceptable to discuss or admit to it
- Compare to breaking a leg and getting it fixed vs covering up
- Pills as temp crutch
- Hitting leg with hammer daily but not want to be aware of it
- Notice if isolated -- check-in with self...then make outward connection email call visit zoom (vs. distraction)
Resistance to Asking for Help
Resistance to recognizing you have a problem and getting help:
- Mental illness shame - avoid talking about it, afraid what others will think of me
- An entrepreneur has to be strong for others
- (co)-Head of family ditto
- It’s a feeling, and it is not rational
- Hard to explain with logic and words
- Entrepreneurs have bigger financial responsibilities and risk levels
- Entrepreneurs are outcasts from traditional society already - lack of others to understand us
- Chronic Workaholism and culture of long hours
- Hard to break this habit
- No refuge (home anxiety == work anxiety)
- Location-independent ones doubly so
- Distance from deep support systems
- Lack of groundedness with current community
- Breadth over depth of support
Anxiety
- Corona lockdown and economic recession accentuates existing anxiety(s)
- Anxiety spectrum: Low-grade constant worry → Full on Fear Panic Attacks
- Obsessive, uncontrollable thoughts
- Obsessive behavior. Constant rechecking. Controlling others and things. Perfectionism.
- Negative interpretations of what others say.
- Rampant (negative) imagination
- Trouble concentrating or thinking about anything other than the present worry
- Having trouble sleeping
- Imposter Syndrome
- Brain and body chemistry from past trauma. PTSD.
- Physical health issues associated with anxiety
- Heart racing, trouble breathing, Sweating, Trembling, Dry mouth
- Nausea/loss of appetite/insatiable appetite
- Tummy pain, poor digestion, diarrhea.
- Headaches, back pain
- Diabetes
- Thyroid problems
- Depressed immune system
- Some specify anxiety disorders:
- Agoraphobia is a type of anxiety disorder in which you fear and often avoid places or situations that might cause you to panic and make you feel trapped, helpless or embarrassed.
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) includes persistent and excessive anxiety and worry about activities or events — even ordinary, routine issues. The worry is out of proportion to the actual circumstance, is difficult to control and affects how you feel physically. It often occurs along with other anxiety disorders or depression.
- Panic Disorder involves repeated episodes of sudden feelings of intense anxiety and fear or terror that reach a peak within minutes (panic attacks). You may have feelings of impending doom, shortness of breath, chest pain, or a rapid, fluttering or pounding heart (heart palpitations). These panic attacks may lead to worrying about them happening again or avoiding situations in which they've occurred.
- Social Anxiety Disorder (social phobia) involves high levels of anxiety, fear and avoidance of social situations due to feelings of embarrassment, self-consciousness and concern about being judged or viewed negatively by others.
- Specific Phobias are characterized by major anxiety when you're exposed to a specific object or situation and a desire to avoid it. Phobias provoke panic attacks in some people.
- Substance-induced Anxiety Disorder is characterized by symptoms of intense anxiety or panic that are a direct result of misusing drugs, taking medications, being exposed to a toxic substance or withdrawal from drugs.
- From https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/anxiety/symptoms-causes/syc-20350961
Apathy
- Lack of joy, excitement, interest in your work, relationships or life.
- Burnout. Bored.
- The main symptom of apathy is a lack of motivation to do, complete, or accomplish anything. You may also experience low energy levels.
- Lack of action
- Tasks and things pile up. Email inbox, VMs, Procrastination. Lack of fulfillment in biz and life.
- Increasing distractions and addictions
- These soak up your attention for the moment, which can sometimes be healthy in short bursts, to get distance from the problem. but unhealthy in the medium-to-long term as you don't resolve or even engage with your problem(s)
- Lack of exercise or activity or socialization (mental thought “why bother?”)
- Physical health issues associated with apathy
- Headaches, back pain, tummy pain, poor digestion, diarrhea, constipation.
- Anemia, eating disorders, addiction hangovers
- Depressed immune system
- A way of becoming numb to protect - yet covers true self
Depression
- Can be very similar to apathy - lack of interest, everything feels meaningless but with an overlay of negative mental thoughts that make you feel even worse.
- Cruel internal dialogue (“You are worthless, nobody loves you, you are broken, you are beyond fixing”)
- A belief that things can not and will not get better
- Difference between feeling sad and feeling depressed!
- Sadness is a specific reaction to something. It fades with time and action.
- Depression is an entire long term mood. It is much harder to shake off.
- The biggest difference between emotions and emotional disorders is the ongoing mind chatter. It honestly feels like an alien/demon has taken over your mind → helpful to personify that demon to recognize that it is NOT YOU and those voices are NOT TRUE
- These may be voices from your childhood from parents, teachers, bullys or more recent from friends, coworkers, bosses, customers or spouses.
- Or you may have an actual negative spirit entity(s) attached to you that is giving you the negative thoughts and energy. An energy healer or shaman can remove these.
- Risk of self-harm or suicide
- Physical health issues associated with depression
- All the same ones as apathy:
- Headaches, back pain, tummy pain, poor digestion, diarrhea, constipation.
- Anemia, eating disorders, addiction hangovers
- Depressed immune system
- Chronic pain, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue
- Irritable bowel syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivity
- PTSD, panic attacks
- Poor diet and exercise makes digestion issues, body aches and pains worse
- Heart disease, strokes
- All the same ones as apathy:
Suicide
-
- Time to talk about the elephant in the room
- Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the US
- Is 2nd leading cause in 30-year-olds
- On average, there are 129 suicides per day.
- Approx 40k per year
- 1.4M suicide attempts per year (2018)
- An estimated 9.3 million adults (3.9% of the adult U.S. population) reported having suicidal thoughts in the past year.
- Suicide and self-injury cost the US $69B per year (2015)
- The annual U.S. suicide rate increased by 24% between 1999 and 2014
-
After suicide
- It is not your fault
- Be supportive
- Support survivors
- (let’s take a breath!)
-
Rat race rant
- We are not looking at these incredible mental illness and suicide statistics as being indicative of deep unlying problems with our society’s programming and the rat race.

- Reset on your Basics
- Clear vision and Why for your biz → work meaning
- It needs to be more than money or being busy
- Work/life balance
- You are not your business. Identity.
- Energy shifts
- EFT tapping. EMDR
- Self-acceptance and forgiveness
- If you were talking to a child would you be so hard on them as you are with yourself?
- Self-compassion
- Drugs and therapy
- Routines
- Ask for help - Support - friends, family, crisis-lines, co-counseling, coach
- Reframing
Loving Reminders
- I know we’re all overachievers. But this is a crazy time. Now is not necessarily the time for you to reach your full potential. It is a time to focus on preventing you from hitting rock bottom. Ease some of that pressure. You don’t need to be operating at full capacity right now.
- YOU ARE NOT YOUR BUSINESS: your work is not a reflection of your worth. If sales went down this month, you are still valuable. If you lost money this month, you are still lovable. If you didn’t sign any new clients this month, you are still a rockstar. Do not tie your worth to your business's success.
- In regular times, social media is a highlight reel for activities. Now, it is a highlight reel for emotions. Every single person is experiencing anxiety and grief and fear about this situation. Do not let social media fool you into thinking you are ‘broken’ or ‘weak’ for feeling scared. Remember that social media is meticulously curated and do not compare yourself to what you see there

Disclaimer and when to get professional help
- This meetup is not a substitute for therapy or medical advice
- If you need professional help, please get it
See your doctor or a mental health provider if:
- You feel like you're worrying too much and it's interfering with your work, relationships or other parts of your life
- Your fear, worry or anxiety is upsetting to you and difficult to control
- You feel depressed, have trouble with alcohol or drug use, or have other mental health concerns along with anxiety
- You think your anxiety could be linked to a physical health problem
- You have suicidal thoughts or behaviors — if this is the case, seek emergency treatment immediately
Your worries may not go away on their own, and they may get worse over time if you don't seek help. See your doctor or a mental health provider before your anxiety gets worse. It's easier to treat if you get help early.

088 Shredding my ego (and growing intuition) with Komal Kaur
Thursday Jan 09, 2020
Thursday Jan 09, 2020
Komal Kaur talks about “Shredding my ego (and growing intuition)” in this episode of Intuitive Leadership Mastery with host Michaela Light.
"to me, ego basically is that part of myself that, um, I identify with that I give a label to that is, um, but I formed the image of who I am. So you know, my name. For example, I have quite an attachment to my name cause I love my name. Um, you know how I look, the image, right? Um, right. That's thoughts. The emotions that come up in my mind, how I feel, my body, what comes up in my body. All of these, all these aspects of myself which are outside is what I consider my ego, what I identify with, what I'm attached to and what I feel separates me from someone else. You know, what makes me- me and what makes you you, you know? And that is my ego. That's what ego means to me."
Episode Highlights
- Her FB post
- I set an intention for 2020 last week, to remove my attachment to the 'I', my ego self that craves and identifies with labels.
- I had to shed a lot of ego in 2019, and release so much attachment to who I thought I was. It's such a painful process... I was holding on so strongly to words and ideas that I used to define myself. Because I needed to find my place in the world.
- But how can I possibly sum the vastness of this existence and experience into a mere few words, words that are limited by the confines of language.
- And as we come to the close of the year, I find myself with even more being stripped away. Things I hold on to tightly, and which define my self worth by my ability to achieve them.
- The more I learn, the less I know. I see the lessons and I hear you loud and clear, God.
- 2020, I welcome you with humility.
- What is ego to you
- Label for myself, self image
- Eg name, thoughts, my face and body
- Separation

Bio
I originally trained as a doctor, graduating in 2011 but throughout my time in university, I also held an interest in fitness and nutrition.
This manifested as a number of gym qualifications, a sports science degree and a few years of experience working in a gym during my medical degree and I participated in a wide range of sport as well including rugby, strongman, MMA, and bodybuilding.
This all took a back seat when I started to work as a doctor but within a few years, I realized that we were working the wrong way round. I didn’t want to catch people after lifestyle diseases had developed. I wanted to prevent these horrific illnesses from developing in the first place, and this could be achieved through nutrition and exercise.
So I left full-time medicine in 2015 to pursue business ventures and to elicit a greater change than I could as a single doctor.
This journey has taken me all over the world and through multiple learning experiences including a gym concept in central London that didn’t take off and a fitness apparel brand that failed after a few years.
It’s certainly not all been negative however and I’ve authored a book, appeared in multiple publications including Men’s Health, the Guardian and Telegraph and Men’s Fitness, I’ve set up a coaching company, lived in South East Asia for 7 months and launched a supplement brand in the States.

Monday Jan 08, 2018
Monday Jan 08, 2018
Welcome back to our Case Study Series. In this episode, I am talking with Martijn Reintjes about how to "Increase Sales (Beyond Your Inner Limits)".
Here are the episode highlights:

- Didn’t feel good saying it as an affirmation
- I realized that I have is a subconscious block
- Previous sales was 2 in a quarter, max 4
- Anxious, queasy in stomach
- Terrifying, alien to me, heavy
- I don’t believe I can do it in volume
- But I know I can make 1 sales
- $15-20k each sale
- 0-10 scale how much believe goal 0
- Youngest Age
- 14
- Salesperson Impostor syndrome
- Sales is new to me and learning
- Consider myself a builder
- Talking with people I don’t know
- Reframe as a challenge
- New goal
- New target market
- How feel with goal of 1 sale for the quarter to new market? Same
- How feel 1 sale to old market? OK
- 10 sales to old market?
- What is different?
- Raised prices
- Before pay as you go, now double the price to a per project with more features, charging for onboarding
- Added in new features we haven’t done before (i know we can do)
