Entrepreneurship is often framed as freedom, innovation, and success — but beneath the surface, it can quietly activate anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, and a deep sense of over-responsibility.
In this episode of Sacred Stories of the Spirit, I’m joined by Gretchen Hernandez, founder of My Freedom Grove, who helps entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs build sustainable businesses without sacrificing mental health.
Together, we explore:
Why entrepreneurship is also a personal evolution journey
The hidden mental health costs of “just pushing through”
Gretchen’s experience with generational depression, anxiety, and burnout
How growth mindset language reshapes inner narratives
What it means to right-size responsibility — especially for others’ feelings and results
Tools like thought downloads and “thought shopping”
Releasing the need to save the day
Choosing want over should in life and work
This conversation is an invitation to build in a way that supports your nervous system, your values, and your long-term wellbeing.
