In this episode of the Balance Period Podcast, we continue our four-part series, sponsored by First Merchants Bank, where we dive into the importance of measuring the quality of what we consume. As entrepreneurs, especially entrepreneurs of color, being mindful of the food, drinks, and mental content we take in can significantly impact our mental and physical health, as well as our overall performance. In this episode, we explore strategies for expanding awareness of what we consume, from food and drink to media, and how to measure the quality of these inputs to optimize your well-being.
