Mission Statement

Becoming the world’s leader in supporting chronic illness warriors, especially entrepreneurs, through prayers, education, expert leadership, advocacy, and strategies for business growth while living life to the fullest. This includes creating an environment where the medical community and insurance/pharmaceutical industries are more open and inclusive for these women who suffer with the daily pains and struggles.

Description

Chronic illness (which is usually difficult to diagnose), is often overlooked because of disinformation. People who suffer from the illness retreat from society, feeling frustrated, angry and scared by the fact that they must seek assistance, and often end up lonely and secluded. Invisible Entrepreneurs will make sure people with Chronic Illnesses are empowered to not feel alone, to correct misinformation about CI, to educate others, to draw parallels and distinctions with other illnesses, and to effectively convey why their situation is unique.
