Welcome to A Self-Led Life: Entrepreneurs in Recovery

We are a group of individuals dedicated to developing A Self-Led Life- the life that exists in our greatest vision. We are a diverse group of entrepreneurs facilitated by Red Door Life, a detox & recovery center for substance abuse, mental health, and trauma healing in Los Angeles, CA. We meet online via Zoom every Monday night at 6:00 p.m. PST for 90 minutes as part of the Red Door Life Telehealth & IOP Program. JOIN US and receive a TWO-WEEK FREE TRIAL! Together, we build a more compelling future as we fiercely defy the fate projected by our struggles and instead take control of our potential as we support each other in working towards our goals. Our group ranges from seasoned entrepreneurs to freelancers- from those a way down the path to those still conceptualizing their vision. We created this BLOG for members to follow if they miss a week and also so newcomers can check us out!

Often our society pathologizes substance abuse issues and mental health struggles, but here in our Self-Led Life Entrepreneurship Group (and at Red Door Life), we understand a deeper truth. Underneath the surface of these issues is tremendous energy. Some of the greatest creative forces of our world have struggled with addiction and mental health issues. What if, working together each week we could learn to invest our energy in building our future, rather than in our symptoms and our suffering?
As a result of trauma and substance abuse, brain circuits are affected. Through support and connection -- groups like ours, one can begin to grow new neural pathways in positive directions. We can connect to deeper purpose and potential and learn to re-design our lives in alignment with our best version of self. We can learn to see beyond our trauma lenses- the fears and distortions of our past, as we uncover our passions... and learn processes, methodology, and mindsets to achieve success. We work to normalize failure as part of the journey, emphasize growth mindset, work to unlearn the messages of limitation we may have internalized. Together, we can go much further than alone.

At each meeting, attendees are first invited to share about their week. Deep and powerful connection forms as we process our journeys, gain insight as we hear other's perspectives, and get to say whatever we need to outloud in order to release pressure and confusion, lear from those further along the path than us... in a group of people who are on the same type of journey. We then watch an empowering talk for about 15 minutes on a topic related to the emotional side of entrpreneurship. This is followed by an engaging discussion. Sometimes we skip the video and discussion and tailor the group to the participants if someone shows up with a particular need or wants support with their project.
