Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in mental wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Ruby Brown-Herring, CEO of RBH Wellness Solutions, LLC., located in Raleigh, NC, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I help businesses, government entities, and nonprofits create employee well-being strategies that support mental health at work while increasing belonging, engagement, and retention.
Tell us about yourself
I started my business a few months after being laid off unexpectedly. Initially, I focused on doing Mental Health First Aid training for organizations around North Carolina. I shifted to focus on employee well-being after a client expressed an interest in implementing Mental Health First Aid as part of their employee well-being strategic plan. Knowing that I can help organizations fully support their employees as a whole person is what motivates me each day.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment has been being recognized as a leader in employee well-being/corporate wellness in North Carolina.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Knowing that you cannot help every organization that reaches out.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Follow your passion.
- Do your research.
- Network!
