Entrepreneurship is a journey filled with highs and lows, and resilience is the key to navigating challenges with confidence. On January 22, 2025, as part of Mental Health Awareness Day, GRWE hosted an engaging panel discussion featuring successful entrepreneurs.

During this event, our panelists shared their personal stories of overcoming setbacks and how they stayed motivated in the face of uncertainty. Practical strategies & actionable tips were shared for our entrepreneurs on how to build resiliency and maintaining focus and positivity during tough times.

During our discussion time, some of our attendees stepped forward to share their experiences and how they overcame these challenges to build resiliency in their lives. A thank you to everyone who attended this live session and for those who provided their personal insights and stories. A common theme is that it can be lonely as an entrepreneur, which is why we started https://www.grwe.ca/. Please visit our website to learn more.
