What's up everyone, this is Alex Lieberman, co-founder and executive chairman of Morning

Brew.

Welcome back to Founders Journal, my personal audio diary, where I give you the business

builder, the tools you need to think better in order to build better, whether that's building

a business, a team or a new product.

This week on Founders Journal, we're doing things a little differently.

We're dropping a mini-series focused on mental health.

I'll talk about my own battle with anxiety, the effects social media has on our psyche,

and breakdown my own mental health routines.

That means instead of just one episode, Monday, Wednesday and Friday, this week we're

giving you two, a new show that you won't want to miss, plus a classic episode you maybe

haven't heard before.

If you haven't listened to today's classic episode, go back and check it out.

Now I am bringing back Startup Crossfit, where I take a business idea through the ringer.

And because it's mini-series week, the business idea I'm breaking down relates to the topic

of mental health.

Let's hop into it.

So let me set the stage first.

This type of episode is called Startup Crossfit, and the whole purpose of this format is not

to start a new business.

It is for all of us to exercise our creativity and our critical thinking at once through the

lens of a startup idea.
