[WHAT]

1. ]   discusses his personal struggles while building his SaaS startup company, offers up takeaway's for others sharing his experience

[WHY]

1. ] I Realized That in Some Ways, I’m Not Alone.
1. Just like any other problem, talking to someone about it can be super helpful. As I learned, it doesn’t matter if that person doesn’t know exactly what you’re going through. Just talk
2. ] I disconnected
1.  You can do whatever helps you disconnect from your work, as long as you do something. For me, that meant turning off every reminder of Groove for a few hours a day.
3. ] I Started Taking Better Care of Myself.
1. Whether you’re a founder or not, getting healthier can go a long way toward helping you deal with your stress. And it doesn’t take changing your whole life. Start small, and the results will motivate you
4. ] I Practice Openness With the Team.
1. Being open and honest with your employees can go a long way in making you feel less isolated. And it has massive benefits for the team and your business, too. There’s a whole lot less that you “can’t” share than you probably think.
