What is the Mindful Entrepreneurship trend?

Mindful Entrepreneurship: Between competitive markets and economic instability, entrepreneurship has become more challenging for the average consumer to take on. Programs that help users learn about and navigate the process of building a business (or aspects of it) are becoming popular among aspiring entrepreneurs.

Insight

The consumer insight behind the Mindful Entrepreneurship trend

Now that remote work is the norm, some consumers have more time for new hobbies or sources of income. Unlike the "hustle" mentality that was dominant pre-pandemic, these new avenues are related to consumers increasingly wanting more autonomy and adventure in their lives. This is especially true of Gen X, which hasn't been as impacted by workplace disillusionment as succeeding generations have amidst the 'Great Resignation,' but still craves a dynamic lifestyle in a post-pandemic world.
