Running A Business While Managing Chronic Health
Most business coaches have no idea what it's like to build a business while your body is falling apart.
The brain fog that makes you forget what you were doing mid-sentence. The fatigue that means a full day's work feels impossible. The autoimmune flares that sideline you for days. The constant calculation of: do I have enough energy for this?
I know both sides because I've lived both sides.
I reversed my own metabolic dysfunction and autoimmune conditions using therapeutic carbohydrate restriction and keto - real whole foods, grounded in nutritional science.
Not packaged products marketed as "keto." Actual food that lets your body function the way it's supposed to.
I have realised the practitioners who need business systems are often the same ones struggling with their own chronic health.
You're helping everyone else heal while barely holding yourself together. You know what your clients should do, but you can't seem to make it work for yourself. The stress of trying to build a business while managing your health is making both worse.
Here's what I've learned after 20+ years in both worlds:
When your metabolic health is stable, your business becomes manageable. Clear head, steady energy, decisions that don't drain you.
When your digital systems are sorted, your stress drops. No more tech panic. No more drowning in platforms you don't understand.
When you stop trying to do everything yourself, your body can actually heal.
I work with practitioners on BOTH sides:
Therapeutic carbohydrate restriction and keto for metabolic health and autoimmune conditions
WordPress business systems that work while you rest
Because you can't build a sustainable business in a body that's breaking down. And you can't heal when you're buried in tech stress and cortisol spikes daily.
If you're brilliant at helping others but drowning trying to help yourself - I get it. I've been there.
