Pandemic has LA Entrepreneur Julieanne O’Connor on Mission: Heal Happiness

Alive and Counting TEDx Speaker Julieanne O’Connor will be a guest on Sharon Lechter’s podcast The Play Big Movement, and Explode Your Expert Biz Show with host Simone Vincenze, in January. Tackling the issues of burnout and quality-of-life with actionable ways to live a more meaningful life, O’Connor will also guest speak at Dr. Venus – The Biohacking M.D.’s upcoming summit Stand Out for Success March 4 to 8.

The novel coronavirus has people thinking more about the future. As Los Angeles breaks global records for COVID-19 case spikes, people now more than ever are seriously considering the impacts. Surrounded by death, depression, suicide, and financial ruin, O’Connor is on a mission this year to create positive change. O’Connor knows as well as anyone that simplifying and prioritizing what matters most is crucial to a fulfilling life.

“As an entrepreneur, a peaceful mindset depends heavily on clarifying your values,” O’Connor says. “It also means building a sustainable business that gives back and can ultimately be sold without leaving money on the table.”

After experiencing burnout herself while over-working to mitigate pandemic-related damage, O’Connor decided to gather the best people and implement the highest quality of advice, such as that given by the best-selling co-author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, Sharon Lechter, in her new book Exit Rich.

“During these uncertain times, it is essential to find ways to adjust and adapt your business to serve your clients at the highest level possible,” Lechter explains. “This not only benefits your customers but also increases the value of your business. Many businesses had their best year ever in 2020 because they found ways to serve their customers in a scalable way that resulted in better profits as well as higher valuations.”

In 2021, O’Connor will spread her message — that already too many people have paid the price for being disconnected, not to mention trading time for money. O’Connor encourages collaborating with others, and outsourcing tasks such as social media management to leverage time and influence.
