Listen to this episode
In this episode
Levi Lindsay, CMO at Shyft Global, opens up about the pressure of being a content creator and the mental health toll entrepreneurship can take, including a moment he nearly took his own life over what he saw as failure. The conversation digs into finding purpose outside your business identity and why founders need to talk about mental health openly.
- Content creation success doesn't shield founders from internal struggles with failure and identity.
- Founders need a sense of purpose that exists separate from their business outcomes.
- Narrowly defining "failure" can push entrepreneurs into a genuine mental health crisis.
- Talking openly about mental health as an entrepreneur can save another founder's life.
