Episode description

Your Shopify business doesn’t live or die by your homepage layout or Facebook ad targeting. It lives and dies by you. In this episode, I open up about something most founders avoid talking about: burnout. Turns out, 70% of entrepreneurs experience mental health issues, and lack of sleep alone can drop your cognitive performance by up to 40%. If you’re not sleeping, moving, eating, or thinking clearly... your business might not be either.
