Running a business will wreck your body, your sleep, and your mental health if you let it. Most founders treat wellness like a luxury they will get to later. Katlyn Hanover is here to explain why that approach fails and what to do instead. This master class covers the foundational wellness habits that keep entrepreneurs functional, focused, and in the game long enough to actually succeed.
