@Patrick Page , this is such a relevant topic in this time and age! Thank you for bringing it up! So curious to hear what was your A-HA moment with mental health as an entrepreneur?!

@Phil Khor , I know you've spoken about isolation as a leader before. Was there a time when you thought: this is enough. I gotta do something about it?

Thanks everyone. Great tips here. Work is part of life and it's important to have some sort of balance. I agree with @Jef Lippiatt that you need to make sure the business isn't 100% reliant on you.
