The Spoonie Biz Club is a business support network created by Mel Friday specifically for people who own their own business while managing chronic illness or disability. It offers a space for connection, body doubling, expert talks, and other forms of support, with a focus on empowering those who live with the challenges of chronic illness or disability whilst being self-employed. The aim is to provide a judgment-free environment where individuals can connect with others facing similar challenges, find support, and learn from experts in the field. The Spoonie Biz Club offers a variety of resources, including: Connection: A community where members can share their experiences and build relationships. Body doubling: Individuals can work together to help each other stay focused and productive, especially helpful for those who may struggle with energy levels. Expert talks: Guest speakers or workshops on topics relevant to working with chronic illness or disability, such as accessibility, self-care, and workplace accommodations. Judgment-free support: A safe and supportive environment where members can openly discuss their challenges without fear of judgment. SBC can provide individuals with valuable support, resources, and a sense of community, which can be particularly helpful for those who may be isolated or struggling to navigate biz ownership with chronic illness or disability.
