Welcome to the Business 111 Coffee Pod, or tea break if you're not a coffee drinker. It's the podcast where we discuss business issues that are of concern to small and micro business owners, freelancers, and sole traders. And we look for solutions as well as just problems and perhaps the sources of those problems. I'm Liz Barclay. I have run my own business, has been freelance. And for me, the issues around mental health have always been important because there is that feeling as a business owner that you are quite isolated and you don't always know the places to look for help.
