Building a business is hard enough. Entrepreneurship while dealing with a chronic illness or condition is even harder. 'Chronic Profit: Building Your Small Business While Managing Persistent Pain' shares the story of how one entrepreneur sought freedom from cubicle life along with the flexibility to be a parent and a business owner, and learned to extend herself enough grace and compassion to excel in business while still taking care of herself.
This book covers business-building strategies that will work for any entrepreneur, such as the importance of building foundations and systems; why standardizing and simplifying offerings is something we often don't do enough; and how to shift your perspective and reframe common business problems. Another important topic, especially for businesspeople dealing with chronic pain, is how to refuel and do self-care, and as author Alison Tedford shares, that can mean a lot more than taking bubble baths - it may involve developing a coping toolbox full of proven tools such as mindfulness, gratitude practices, and more.
Often, we struggle when asking for help but Tedford also discusses how to do that effectively, and leaves the reader feeling there's hope and that anyone can find joy in the journey of creating their own sustainable business while managing diverse issues and persistent pain.

Autoren-Porträt von Alison Tedford
I am a writer from Abbotsford, BC and my essays have been published on Al Jazeera, CBC, Upworthy, WestCoast Families, Asparagus Magazine and many other publications in print and online. I have been struggling with chronic pain for a number of years as a result of my diagnosis of joint hypermobility syndrome (Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.) I am one of 40 patients globally who are part of a cohort for EDS advocacy training called EDS Echo put on the EDS Society. My essay about chronic pain did very well on CBC. I've appeared on Sick Biz Buzz and Mom Camp podcasts to discuss life as an entrepreneur with chronic pain. I have been a patient advocate with Pain BC in their collaborative care consultation and they have shared my content in the past. I have advocated around health issues historically around mental health, serving as a Shoppers Drug Mart ambassador for their Run for Women and in-store fundraising events, and also around Indigenous health issues, having presented at a regional nursing conference on disparities in health experiences between Indigenous and non-Indigenous women. I am an Indigenous woman myself.
I am able to write with humour and warmth. I have approached writing from both a journalistic perspective and as an essayist. My experience for this book comes from having been full time in my business as a marketing consultant/writer for three years after leaving my government job due to pain. I had to build something sustainable, flexible and that would support my family's financial needs. As it turns out I was almost able to replace my federal government salary and support us just fine. With the prominence of "hustle culture" and "toxic positivity" there is a need in the market for something that's real about the challenges of chronic pain while still making it clear that having chronic pain doesn't make you ineligible for success as a business owner. Your journey will just look different.
The premise of my proposed book is that you

can still build a business with chronic pain if you systematize, simplify and delegate. On the business mindset side the methodology focuses on reframing your limitations as strengths, reimagining/designing something new, and refueling with self-care. From a psychological side, it's about releasing the guilt around not being productive enough or being able to do things the way everyone else does, embracing the feelings and riding them out, and finding ways to celebrate and feel joy despite. I envisioned the first half of the book to be around the methodology of building a business while managing chronic pain and the second half being interview style profiles of entrepreneurs who have faced chronic pain and a thought leader around the Future of Work about how advances in technology and work culture can support the growth of entrepreneurs struggling with chronic pain.
