Not gonna lie, sometimes it gets overwhelming as a founder - wearing a lot of hats, lots of context switching doing completely different tasks.

For context, we are a team of two, and our product is completely bootstrapped.

Recently I spent a lot of time coding - rebuilding some of the tech debt of my app from the MVP, completely rewriting the app from the ground up to optimize the app for our users.

As a result, I spent less time marketing the app, and the growth suffered, and I feel terrible about it.

How do you stay mentally well, and motivated in times like these?

    My side project is an AI wellbeing coach in Discord called Ana AI. If you’d like to have a play whilst she’s in BETA feel free to join the server:

    For my own mental health, I find running, cycling, and Minecraft to really help clear my head. I’m also diligent with weekends and finish times for work.
