Founder’s Therapy Was Awesome. We May Be Onto Something…

Tuesday night, we kicked off the Founder’s Therapy event series at Bar One in Atlanta. It’s like Alcoholics Anonymous for entrepreneurs…except we drink during the session.  The topic was Non-supportive Family, Friends, and Signicant Others,  and it allowed 25 entrepreneurs to get ish off their chests.

A few key/interesting things came out of the event:

+ Wives of entrepreneurs put alot of stress on the males (whether they mean it or not)
+ It is extremely difficult for female entrepreneurs to have relationships
+ How entrepreneurs would like to receive support can be explained better by the 5 Love Languages. *IMO, this was the most important thing to come out of the event. And it has to/will be explored in detail later.

My early plan is to have this event once a quarter, and the next topic is, tentatively, slated to focus on failure: both our most horrifying crash-and-burn moments (I’ve got plenty of ammo for this one), and the fear of failure in the black community.

A special thanks goes to Amber Saunders and the staff at Bar One for all of the help, and to Reggie Harrison (@coldfinger) for the photos!
