Building Entrepreneurial Resilience: A CBT Workshop for Beauty Business Owners. As a lash artist with a background in psychology, I've been invited to speak at The Beauty Educators E-Summit 2025 in collaboration with Trusted Beauty Professionals. This online seminar will focus on building mental resilience and managing the unique psychological challenges that come with entrepreneurship. During the session, we will explore how business owners often face higher levels of stress, pressure, and uncertainty compared to other professionals. The good news? Resilience isn't something you're born with - it's a skill that can be developed and strengthened over time. Read these tips to find out how to start building entrepreneurial resilience.
Key Steps to Building Resilience Using Cognitive Behavioural Techniques
Throughout the workshop, we will break down the process into four manageable steps:
1. Identifying Negative Thoughts
Learn how to recognise negative thought patterns by asking ourselves important questions:
- Are we using negative language?
- Are we automatically assuming the worst-case scenario?
- Would we speak to a friend the way we speak to ourselves?
2. Challenging These Thoughts
Learn to question our thoughts more deeply:
- Is this thought actually true, or is it our anxious brain talking?
- What real evidence supports this thought?
- How would we advise a friend in the same situation?
3. Emotional Awareness
Understand the importance of recognising our emotional states before reaching a point of burnout. This includes identifying personal self-care strategies that work for us, whether that's exercise, reading, prayer, or spending time with friends.
4. Creating Positive Habits
We will learn how to transform our insights into actionable habits. This includes breaking down larger goals into smaller, manageable tasks and creating routines that support our mental well-being and business success.
This workshop emphasises that being resilient doesn't mean never facing challenges - it's about developing the ability to bounce back from difficulties and learn from them. By implementing these CBT techniques, beauty business owners can build stronger mental resilience and maintain a successful, enjoyable work life balance. Remember, building resilience is a journey, not a destination. Start small, be consistent, and most importantly, be kind to yourself along the way.
We can't wait to see you at The Lash Summit 2025!
