Hello,

I've undergone an interesting life. My father was sick for 18 of my 20 years and just died this April. God's called me to work in entrepreneurship, but I'm not sure how to ask my friends for help and I need to find the right way to balance business and household chores. And I'm not sure how to market my business on a shoestring budget, but at the same time I know I have enough in savings and God's been confirming that at least for now, I need to keep moving forward with entrepreneurship.

Basically, I need prayer for trusting God. I also need wisdom and to learn how to heal from this anxiety. Having a sick dad for 18 years, maybe I got used to anxiety and feel the need to be anxious about something; I don't know.

Thank you so much!

Praying for you. I definitely know the anxiety thing. It's a struggle, but God can work through it to teach you to trust Him more.

I am also an entrepreneur with anxiety. I can probably answer any business-building questions you might have, if you have them? I’ve been in the internet marketing field for ten years, and I’m also a writer/artist.

Back on topic, I’ll simply agree that healing from anxiety is a hard journey. Trusting God does get easier, and it’s a great feeling when you know he’s behind your business 110%. Wishing you the best and praying.

You could try to pretend not to have anxiety "fake it 'till you make it".

I know you mean well, IPv4, but as someone with anxiety myself i know that this leads to only more hurt.
The best thing that helps is to talk about it. Find someone you trust and let them in. When you're feeling anxious talk to them about what's going on. Don't let it sit in your head. Being stuck in your head makes anxiety grow. And quickly too.
While it can be scary opening up, you may find it to be more healing than you ever imagined.

I'm a bit late but praying. Hope you're coping well on your father passing away.

Sorry, it's been a while since I checked in. Thank you so much for your prayers!

I've been doing a lot better lately and been growing a lot in these things. Always more progress to be had, but I really appreciate your support and prayers and know they've helped!

@WorldsTraveler I would actually love to get feedback on internet marketing, that is my uber-weak point! I'm also open to other feedback as well, though I have more mentors for other aspects. Want me to PM you? I'm happy to give out my email.

Glad to hear things are going better! Praying that they continue to improve!

PM is fine. I’ve taken a look at your marketing funnel/reader attraction system (what of it I can see; I cannot access the Facebook account). I can give you a general overview to start or you can ask me specific questions. Message me when you’re ready.

@Sheenar Thank you!

@WorldsTraveler Will do! I think I know what you're referring to when you say you can't access the Facebook account... hmm... :/ I'll have to look into it. Thanks!

I will be praying for you and your entrepreneur stuff as well.
