Some life news:
March was the most difficult month of my professional life and I have been struggling with my mental health since the beginning of the year. Being in a leadership role at 2 startups finally caught up with me, and I had to make some difficult decisions.

Last month I had to finally accept that The Taproom, the agency I started 4.5 years ago, was not doing so great. I had kept it afloat for as long as I could, but I couldn’t take care of the team anymore. Our employees’ last day was 3/31.

Dealing with the toll of seeing your own company in this position, mentally I was at my worst. I wasn’t sleeping, I wasn’t eating, I wasn’t taking care of myself. Something in my life had to change to put my mental health first and get back on track.

With that, I had one more difficult decision to make.
At the end of this month, I will be departing from
@fromgovalo
to focus on getting my mental health back on track. I am still 100% Team Govalo and I know
@rhiankatie
and the rest of the incredible team will continue to soar.

I didn’t make this decision lightly, but it’s something I had to do.
I can’t thank
@dxnielvaughn
,
@rhiankatie
, the Govalo team, and our investors enough for being so supportive during this time.
I know there are better days ahead. I’ll share what I’m doing next soon. 💜
