Dr. John Delony: The Mental Health Crisis Silently Destroying Entrepreneurs | Mental Wealth Series | E2

In this powerful episode of Young and Profiting, host Hala Taha sits down with Dr. John Deloney, a mental health expert and best-selling author, to confront the silent mental health crisis plaguing entrepreneurs. Deloney shares his personal journey from burnout and anxiety to building a non-anxious life, emphasizing that anxiety is not a flaw but a vital alarm system signaling unsafety in one's life. He critiques modern culture for equating worth with numbers—net worth, business value, performance metrics—while ignoring the deeper human needs for connection, peace, and meaning. Drawing from his own experience as a father, husband, and entrepreneur, Deloney reveals how he rebuilt his life by choosing reality, connection, freedom, health, mindfulness, and belief. He warns against the dangers of over-reliance on medication, digital relationships, and identity labels like 'anxious' or 'depressed,' advocating instead for action, community, and authenticity.
