In a significant move to support the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Charlotte, North Carolina, a groundbreaking wellness program is set to launch on August 1, 2024. The Catch Your Breath cohort program, a 12-week well-being accelerator, will provide 30 diverse local entrepreneurs with essential tools to combat burnout and maintain their overall well-being.
Developed by Hooky Wellness in partnership with the CLT Alliance Foundation, this innovative program addresses a critical challenge faced by many entrepreneurs: stress management and lack of community support. The initiative comes at a crucial time when the mental health and well-being of business leaders are increasingly recognized as vital components of sustainable business success.
The Catch Your Breath program adopts a holistic approach, combining online and in-person experiences to ensure flexibility and accessibility for all participants. A key feature of the program is the proprietary P.A.C.E. framework (Perspective, Accountability, Choice, and Enablement) developed by Hooky Wellness. This framework will guide participants in crafting their personalized burnout contingency toolkit and 90-day relief plan.
Erayna Sargent, founder of Hooky Wellness and producer of the Catch Your Breath program, emphasized the importance of supporting entrepreneurs in their journey to well-being. ‘With Catch Your Breath, we are building a foundation for a resilient and prosperous entrepreneurial community in Charlotte,’ Sargent stated. As a founder herself, Sargent brings firsthand understanding of the challenges faced by entrepreneurs to the program’s design.
The program’s structure includes group wellness activities designed to build a sense of community and peer support, addressing the common challenge of loneliness in entrepreneurship. This community-building aspect is expected to have a lasting impact on Charlotte’s business ecosystem, fostering an environment where both personal well-being and professional growth are prioritized.
The CLT Alliance Foundation, a partner in this initiative, plays a crucial role in catalyzing transformative growth in the Charlotte Region. The Foundation’s involvement underscores the recognition of well-being initiatives as essential for the long-term growth of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Running through mid-October, the program will culminate in a graduation retreat, providing participants with a comprehensive experience that goes beyond traditional business acceleration programs. This approach reflects a growing trend in entrepreneurship support, acknowledging that the health and well-being of the individual are intrinsically linked to the success of their ventures.
The launch of Catch Your Breath in Charlotte represents a significant step towards creating a more resilient and sustainable business community. By addressing the often-overlooked aspects of entrepreneurial life, such as stress management and mental health, the program aims to equip business leaders with the tools they need to thrive both personally and professionally.
As the entrepreneurial landscape continues to evolve, programs like Catch Your Breath may serve as a model for other cities looking to support their business communities holistically. The success of this initiative could potentially influence how entrepreneurship support is approached on a broader scale, emphasizing the importance of well-being alongside traditional business metrics.
