Mindset
“when at home you don't feel desired you don't feel respected you don't feel deeply connected there's this low-level stress or anxiety of am I good enough you go to work and you're already on a short fuse how many bad decisions are you going to be making about how you're using your money”
The 'am I good enough' anxiety from home gets paid by the business
Self-worth anxiety doesn't stay in its lane. An unresolved 'am I good enough' running quietly underneath personal life shows up at the desk as a short fuse, impulsive spending, and impaired judgment. The cost of an unsupportive home life gets paid by the business in bad calls — and the founder usually misattributes it to stress.
