The Lakewood Chamber of Commerce, recognizing the monumental task small business owners face in balancing work with personal care, has announced a free educational event aimed squarely at those whose businesses often demand everything they've got – and then some. The "Small Business Education Series" panel, happening on February 10, will focus on strategies to maintain personal well-being, handle stress, and foster sound financial practices.
According to a social media post from the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce, the event boasts a roster of experts ready to share actionable advice. Panelists include Jackie Potter of JPotter Health, John Dailey from First Federal Lakewood, and physical therapist Kyle MacMillan, DPT, of Bridge Rehab & Performance. Steve Meka of STEM Handmade Soap will moderate the panel, which also includes an opportunity for direct audience Q&A.
Slated to take place at the Lakewood Public Library, the panel reflects a partnership between the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce and the City of Lakewood. It seems to underscore a growing recognition among local business advocacy groups that the health of a small business is tied closely to the health of its owner.
