Key Takeaways: 

• Difference Between Coaching and Therapy: Therapy is insight-oriented and focused on healing from the past, while coaching is action-oriented, focusing on achieving future goals.
• Choosing the Right Professional Support: If you're unsure whether to seek a coach or therapist, it often depends on whether you want to heal or build. Consulting a professional can help guide that decision.
• Founders and Self-Worth: Entrepreneurs often tie their self-worth to business success, but it's important to remember that external outcomes do not define your value.
• Balancing Mental Well-being: Being aware of your internal emotional landscape helps you avoid letting outside influences negatively impact your self-worth.
