t can be easy to think that entrepreneurship is all sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows from reading your social media feeds every day.

Doesn’t it look like most people live a perfect life?

But entrepreneurship has some pretty big pitfalls and hurdles.

A big one is depression.

I’m fortunate enough to have never experienced it (I have had some dark days, though), but I know a lot of entrepreneurs who have – and it’s a big thing right now.

I listened to a podcast the other day that gave the story of two entrepreneurs, including fellow Canadian Tod Maffin, who have battled it and made it out to the other side.

I’m sharing this interview because I think it contains some important lessons for entrepreneurs, and it can help a lot of you who are in my community:
