Danya Sherman founded KnoNap, a company to combat drink spiking, where someones drink might be spiked with something like a rape drug. We talk about her experience as a non-tech founder, how she dealt with the pressure to change how she presented as a young founder, and founder mental health. It’s a really valuable and vulnerable conversation, and I hope you enjoy.

Motherhood involves a lot of sacrifice, but it can get tricky when we start to gauge our value as humans by the self-denial we express, or how much we suffer for others. 

I'm wrestling with this now, and I think this conversation about maintaining mental health and preventing burnout is worthwhile even if you're not a parent, but someone who has a passionate project or mission that is bringing you close to burnout.

And if you're not a mother but a spouse, here are some tangible things you can do to support her in postpartum. Cuz it's really effing hard.

The space between the holidays and the new year is a great time to review and reflect on the past year, and create alignment between your intentions and your actions for the coming year.

I shared today about why I do a Year in Review (this will be my SIXTH year!), what it's all about, and how it can help you set intentions for 2022.
