Running a business can be rewarding, but it can also be stressful, demanding and sometimes overwhelming.
This Queensland Mental Health Week (), we’re reminded that connection supports wellbeing. The 2026 theme, Build Community, Build Wellbeing, is a timely reminder that small business owners should not have to navigate life’s challenges alone.
If the pressures of running your small business are starting to affect your wellbeing, it may be time to reach out to our Small Business Wellbeing Coaches for confidential, tailored and free support.
Accessing support early means a stronger way forward for you and your business.
Visit https://bit.ly/SBFCWellbeing to connect with the team today!
These services are proudly funded by the Queensland Government, and the Small Business Financial Counselling Service Southern Queensland (SBFCS-SQ) is delivering them on their behalf.
