Business Success Milestone Tracker & Mental Health Support Platform

Problem (Pain Point):

Entrepreneurs frequently struggle with anxiety, imposter syndrome, and feelings of inadequate progress. They lack clear benchmarks for success, peer support systems, and tools to track both business and personal growth metrics. This affects their mental health and business decision-making.
