How to Help an Entrepreneur Through Adversity

Adversity confronts entrepreneurs every day. Have you ever engaged in conversation with another entrepreneur where it was obvious that both of you were facing difficulties? Have you ever left a conversation feeling like something that needed to be discussed wasn’t? Afterward, did you consider whether you or your peer could have assisted the other person more?

As we face adversity, not just as entrepreneurs, but as people, having others to help us navigate the storm is very important. Unfortunately, too many times we cover it up, tough it out, hide the truth, and just don’t plain come clean with whatever it is we are going through.

Want to help another person struggling with adversity?  Share first, go first, be first, get vulnerable, first.  When one person decides to be brave, drop the walls, share with ultimate vulnerability, it lifts the vail of small talk, and creates an environment to have real conversations about life, love and leadership; conversations that really matter.
