“ZenFounder’s The Entrepreneur Personality with Dr. Michael Freeman episode has had a big impact on my life. He is a psychiatrist who works with founders and CEOs. He talks about the unique nature of entrepreneurs and the importance of understanding who you are as a leader. Like him, I hope to be a voice to other founders and CEOs in pointing out self-care and mental health needs.”
