123, Husband is burning out...help! Posted by MrsPizza, Sat Oct-13-07 02:26 PM
My husband and I have owned and operated a restaurant franchise for the past 3 and a half years. My husband is the primary manager and operator, while I do the accounting and have my own full time job on the side. Problem is that he is starting to burnout and I don't know what to do. His depression started with a slump in summer sales, and although it's gotten a little bit better, he says he's still feeling stressed, anxious, alone and lost. I gave him a "don't give up" pep-talk (and he told me I should write a self-help book...haha), I also told him I would stop by once a week after work to help him with misc tasks that he needs help with and that I can also be available on weekends. Does anyone else have any other ideas for combating business owner burnout (other than selling it of course)?
