> I have a coach, I work with an executive coaching mastermind as I deepen my own executive coaching practice, I have a men’s group that meets weekly (it’s like crossfit for my emotions), a therapist and a slack channel filled with innovation consultants who are all more talented than me, and generous with their insights. And...yet...It can still feel lonely and hard sometimes.
My take is that startups are intrinsically hard: you’re out of your comfort zone, you don’t know if you’re making good decisions, and you have to repeatedly deal with setbacks and other roadblocks. No amount of therapy-adjacent talking will change that. I wonder if I’m completely out of touch with the younger generation of founders.
