Being the year 2013, there are currently more female entrepreneurs then there ever have been before.  I find it so empowering to learn about new businesses almost on a daily basis that are lead and run by women.  There tend to be some challenges that face women that run their own businesses that are different than the challenges that men face.  Some of these challenges include: balancing work life and personnel life and allowing other’s to do the work, instead of doing it all themselves.

According to a survey conducted by the National Life Insurance Company, four out of ten employees state that their jobs are "very" or "extremely" stressful.  Those in high-stress jobs are three times more likely than others to suffer from stress-related medical conditions and are twice as likely to quit. The study states that women, in particular, report stress related to the conflict between work and family.
