The Reboot Podcast has hosted a wide variety of conversations around the complexity and diversity of the co-founder experience, such as the importance of communication, the power of mindfulness in partnerships, and shared our advice for navigating co-founder conflict. Co-founders looking to meet the day-to-day challenges of running a business must commit to consistent work in aligning their vision and purpose for the organization, but what happens when an unforeseen tragedy throws all your preparation out the door?

In this episode, Nitin Agrawal, Co-founder and CEO of Interstride, describes the loneliness and pathlessness he experienced in the wake of the sudden death of his dear friend and fellow co-founder, Christian. Nitin details the experience and soul searching it took to rediscover his purpose and recounts how his journey through grief restored confidence in his own ability to lead. Jerry and Nitin explore what it means to manage the heartbreak of the every day and share advice for finding the strength to land on your feet when your foundation gets shaken to its core.

The American experience of stress has spawned a multi-billion dollar self-help industry. Wary of this, Esther Sternberg says that, until recently, modern science did not have the tools or the inclination to take emotional stress seriously. She shares fascinating new scientific insight into the molecular level of the mind-body connection.

The pit of despair is a tough and tricky place. How can you find a way through when it feels like you’re fumbling around in the dark? Mollie West Duffy and Liz Fosslien, authors of "Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay," return for another heartfelt conversation with Ali Schultz. 

In this episode, we define despair and describe how in all of its facets, it is not simply depression. Mollie shares honestly about some of her darkest days and Liz discusses her struggles with emotional suppression. As a group, they talk about ways to resource yourself if you find yourself there, and how to be with someone who is in despair in a supportive, empathetic way. They emphasize the power of small acts and the importance of seeking help by opening up to trusted friends and professionals. We hope you’ll find this raw and honest conversation on mental health and hope valuable.
