The drive to achieve success can be overwhelming in the fast-paced world of entrepreneurship. But what happens when that drive becomes overdrive? Overworking is not just about late nights and skipped meals; it's a path that can lead to stress, anxiety, and depression. While the entrepreneurial journey demands hard work and dedication, it's equally important to recognize the value of rest and self-care. In this episode of Big Asian Energy, we are joined by Rachel Maeng Brown, CEO of GEN Agency. Rachel is a recipient of notable accolades such as “NYC 20 in their 20s” and "AHN International Unsung Hero." Rachel shares how she learned that avoiding burnout isn't just a personal goal. It's a strategic move to ensure the longevity and success of your venture. Rachel also sheds light on the lack of Asian American women in leadership positions and the difficulties of being an influencer. She shares her personal experiences of facing microaggressions and criticism, highlighting the misconceptions people have about the hard work that goes into success. Join us as we explore the delicate balance between hard work and self-preservation, and discover the tools and techniques that can help every entrepreneur thrive, both personally and professionally.
