Innovators shared how they handle the pressures with CNN Money:
- For Payal Kadakia, founder of ClassPass, the answer is dance. “Dance is a creative outlet for me,” says Kadakia, whose ClassPass app allows users to book fitness classes at different studios in cities around the world.
- Baiju Bhatt, co-founder of Robinhood says: “I think the best way to solve a problem is to think about it for a little while and then to go for a jog.”
- Whitney Wolfe, founder of Bumble, says that going outside can help ease work worries. “Some routines that I find are a good way to step away from the day-to-day: Go for a run, go for a swim, go outside,” Wolfe says.
- James Hirschfeld, co-founder of Paperless Post says: “The first thing that I do every single morning is I go running for 3 miles,” says Hirschfeld. “And people often say, ‘That’s very disciplined of you,’ but the truth is it’s really not a question of discipline. It’s a question of anxiety management. It really clears my head in the morning so I can come into work and then face all the challenges without bringing what I woke up with into the office.”
- “There’s so little time for anything aside from hanging out with the fam,” says Joey Zwillinger, co-founder of Allbirds. “I like to drop my kids off at school and every single weekend I’m on the bike with the kids in the back in a little caboose, and I never have my phone with me when I’m with the kids — or I never look at it, at least — and so it’s kind of like this disconnection from the fast-paced stuff that I’m dealing on a day-to-day basis with work,” he says. He also jogs in the woods and hills near his home to unwind.
