Catalyst Consulting is on a mission to make a difference for leaders in small business and the Cash Flow story is a great way for any small business owner, or leader to get started with creating the insight, perspective, mindset and knowledge needed to make necessary and important financial decisions across the board in your life.
With the majority of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, there is an added stress that CEO’s, CFO’s and leadership of small businesses. Not only are small business owners, and entrepreneurs taking risks to build their businesses, they are dually responsible for the financial health of their homes and families. This added stress coupled by the stigmatized conversation of money leaves many to deal with their financial difficulties alone, and this is exactly why we created The Cash Flow Story.
Money — including the amount of debt, savings and general money management — is the number one stressor for adults ages 18 to 57, according to the 2022 “Stress in America” survey. Financial stress can affect someone’s relationships, work and ability to carry out everyday tasks. The APA also finds that there is a strong link between stress and physical health. Stress can lead to chronic muscle tension, long-term heart problems and stomach pains, among other adverse health conditions.
In February 2022, the APA reported the highest number of people experiencing money-related stress since 2015 — 65 percent of respondents said money is a significant source of stress.
These aren’t just individual issues, they wreak havoc on executive teams and business owners that trickle down into the fabric of any organization. With the rate of suicide among CEO’s only rising we want you to join us in this worthwhile series to learn how to connect financial decisions across the board in your life. “Suicide rates nationwide are rising steadily, to 14 per 100,000 individuals in 2017, according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. White males account for nearly 70 percent of suicides, almost four times the rate of women. While the stigma surrounding mental health has lifted somewhat, it remains dangerous territory for high-level executives, more accustomed to solving problems than having them.”
The Cash Flow Story has been designed to support leaders with the necessary tools to make a difference not only in your organizations but in your lives so that you can feel like you have a safe place to discuss important financial matters in a mastermind setting with other like-minded professionals with trained coaches to support you in having your next and most important financial breakthroughs that not only benefit your organization but in your personal lives and relationships as well.
Take the reins of your financial life and be the champion of your company and the most stressful conversation today.
