Entrepreneurial Burnout is REAL!

Entrepreneurial Burnout is REAL!

Breathe & Pace Yourself: Entrepreneurial Burnout is real! In this episode, the X.T.C. crew discusses the inevitable burnout that almost all entrepreneurs experience on their journey. We talk about the warning signs and how to identify the burnout, and, more importantly, how to solve it when it happens and get yourself back on track. Because at the end of the day, the ship (your business) can’t sail without its captain (You! – the entrepreneur) and caring for yourself is ultimately caring for your business. So, if you’re feeling burnt out, pop open that lounge chair on the beach and join us, as we learn to take care of our business’ best asset … OURSELVES! #TheEntrepreneursTrip #XTC #Podcast #Videocasts Music License: 0OH4NPOTXCWRMVBB
The “Who” & “Why” people embark on Entrepreneurship

The “Who” & “Why” people embark on Entrepreneurship

Who is an entrepreneur? Why are they successful? Learn how failures build character and well-known entrepreneurs apply the lessons learned to become “successful.” (However, “success” is defined for every individual.) Whether they had to jump hurdles to overcome their life obstacles, “permanently halted” your businesses, or challenge naysayers trying to derail their focus on their goals, it was their why that fueled their actions towards their vision. Having a vision bigger than oneself to change the world, before the world knows that a change is needed or coming, is the why that fuels an entrepreneur to go after their dreams. Rumi stated “yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today, I am wise, so I want to change myself.” Your Travel Companions/Hosts debate about what makes a successful entrepreneur and the why. On a side note, what do insects or animals have to do with the attributes of entrepreneurship? Take your dose of X.T.C. and find out! Music: 0OH4NPOTXCWRMVBB
Beyond the "What" & "How" of Entrepreneurship

Beyond the "What" & "How" of Entrepreneurship

Business formation in the U.S. and the Caribbean is growing! As people take the plunge into entrepreneurship, our Hosts X.T.C. share what propelled them into starting their own businesses and how the journey has been. This isn’t Xaulanda’s first ride at the entrepreneurship rodeo. Chris quit his job cold-turkey to do a documentary in Puerto Rico. And, Tristian turned a college practicum into a video production business. Without a lot of resources (i.e., funds, time, etc.), but a strong vision, they catapulted an idea into a reality. Regardless of what pushes you into starting your own business and how you went about your journey, entrepreneurship is truly a trip! #TheEntrepreneursTrip #XTC #Podcast #Videocasts Music License: 0OH4NPOTXCWRMVBB
