The Sacred Work of Supporting One Another in Business

By Susie Taylor | Contributor WBN News | 15 Jun 2025

Business is often framed as a hustle. A grind. A competition.
But what if we saw it differently?
What if, instead of racing against one another, we realized we’re all walking the same road. We're just at different mile markers?

At its core, business is about people. And supporting one another in business? That’s sacred work.

Not flashy. Not always profitable. But essential.

We’re Not Meant to Do This Alone

Being an entrepreneur can be exhilarating… and isolating. You’ve got dreams to chase and deadlines to meet. You’re wearing all the hats and wondering if you’re the only one whose head is spinning.

Supporting one another means we show up. It’s the client who refers you without being asked. The peer who sends a “You’ve got this” text the morning of your launch. The mentor who listens without judging. These aren’t transactions. They’re lifelines.

Reminder: You don’t have to have it all together to be helpful. Sometimes the best support is simply saying, “Me too.”

There’s Room at the Table for All of Us

Scarcity says: “If she wins, I lose.”
Abundance says: “If she wins, we all rise.”

Collaboration over competition isn’t just a cute quote. It’s a strategy for sustainability. When we celebrate each other’s wins, share what we’ve learned (even the hard lessons), and lift one another up, we create an ecosystem where businesses thrive and burnout doesn't.

Support Is More Than Social Media Likes

Liking a post is nice. Sharing it is better. But true support runs deeper.

• Are you referring people to businesses you believe in?
• Are you writing testimonials and reviews that actually help?
• Are you checking in on your colleagues during tough seasons, not just celebrating the highlight reels?

Support isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s quiet and steady. A seat saved. A hand held. A door opened.

It’s Sacred Because It Changes Lives

Maybe you don’t think of your encouragement as sacred, but think back to a time someone believed in you when you couldn’t believe in yourself.

That kind word. That timely favor. That shared contact that led to your best client.

Business is not just about transactions. It’s about transformation. And supporting one another? It’s how we make that transformation possible, not just for our clients, but for each other.

We’re Building More Than a Business. We’re Building a Legacy

When we support each other with intention, we aren’t just helping a friend pay the bills or book a client. We’re weaving a network of resilience, integrity, and community.

One conversation can spark a new direction.
One recommendation can change someone’s month.
One shared truth can keep someone going.

And that, my friend, is holy ground.

Final Thought
The sacred work of supporting one another doesn’t require a platform, a podcast, or a perfectly polished brand. It just requires heart. And when we lead with that, we all move forward—together.
