I run a company of 400 people. It’s only possible because of a decision I made soon after we launched — even though it had nothing to do with business: I decided to see a therapist.
I hadn’t set out to be an entrepreneur; I was an English major in college, busy reading Dostoevsky and philosophy. Then I rented a tuxedo to get married, and it was an atrocious process. There must be a better way, I thought.
