Building a company is always filled with highs and lows, but this past year has been particularly challenging for founders and teams. Before you can invest in leading your team, you have to invest in your own mental health. Here are some ways how 👇 (a thread)
🧠Meditate: Apps like  @10percent and  @Headspace have made it easier than ever to experiment with meditation. Even 10 minutes a day can help settle your mind and reduce your stress. /2
🧠Join a CEO Group: Founding a company can be a lonely journey and connecting with a group of peers traveling the same road can offer tremendous support and relief. Many of our co-founding Pillar CEOs have all had positive experiences with the Catlin & Cookman Group in Boston. /3
🧠Connect with a Therapist: Sometimes rest and relaxation aren’t enough. Talking with a therapist can provide a ray of relief and clarity.  @talkspace offers online therapy with a licensed therapist.  @twochairsMH pairs you with a therapist tailored to your own personal needs. /4
When we devote so much time in life to building our companies, it’s easy to start to think of ourselves as workers. We forget that we are humans, first.
