Most founders don’t realize how much energy goes into managing perception. The “I’m fine” mask is exhausting. You’re allowed to be real, even in the middle of the storm.

Founder depression is tough. When I was in it, I thought I had to grind through the darkness. What I needed was rest. A walk. A call with a friend. A nap. Founders: rest is productive. Don’t wait until you break.

Founders are 2x more likely to experience depression. Why? – Identity = tied to startup – Constant failure, zero mastery – Disconnection from friends, family, self It’s not just you. It’s the job. And there’s a way through.

As a coach, I feel like I get to watch people’s lives change right in front of my eyes. This work is such an honor and so much damn fun.

Startup success doesn’t protect you from depression. Sometimes, it hides it. I built a fast-growing company—and still felt like I was drowning some days. You’re not broken. You’re human. And you’re not alone.

One of depression’s cruelest lies: “This is how it’s going to be forever.” If you’re in it right now, please hear this: The way you feel today is not permanent. You will feel joy again. Keep going. ❤️
