573 Debra Wanger: Health for Entrepreneurs
Plus, What Acting Can Teach Us About Building Your Business
If there is one trait that predicts the success of an entrepreneur it is resilience – the ability to embrace change, not take everything personally, and invest in your own health and wellness.
Many entrepreneurs fall into the trap of overwhelm and burnout, often because they put their own self-care at the bottom of a never ending ‘to do’ list. And that impedes our resilience to handle rejection and overcome our fears.
Turns out acting and performing can teach us a great deal about resilience.
Actor, singer, and certified wellness coach Debra Wanger has performed in theaters, cabarets, and screens from New York to Los Angeles. While working at Creative Artists Agency, she helped guide the careers of many top names, including Halle Berry and Antonio Banderas. Bestselling author of The Resilient Actor: How to Kick-Ass in the Business Without it Kicking Your Ass, Debra shares what acting taught her about overcoming her fears, stepping into the light, and entrepreneurial resilience.
- Why the biggest mistake women make in business is failing to invest in their own health and wellness
- Debra’s morning routine of water, meditation, visualization, gratitude and exercise – and how it makes her more productive, calm and beats overwhelm
- Why a lot of sleep should be non-negotiable
- How to find balance in your life so you’re not on a constant task treadmill with your work never done
- What acting and singing taught her about entrepreneurial resilience
- Why women are so fearful of stepping into the light – and how not to take everything personally
- And much more!
