Finding Your Joy with Melissa & Doug Co-founder Melissa Bernstein

Melissa Bernstein is best known for co-founding Melissa & Doug, one of the most popular toy brands ever, currently valued at more than $1 billion. She is now onto her second entrepreneurship journey with the launch of LifeLines, a new company (and new book!) all about mindset and mental health. In today’s episode, she’s here to teach us about how to find the right co-founder (her husband Doug is her business partner), how to deal with copycat brands, and how to better navigate the intense emotions that come with such a demanding career. She also describes her experience with existential depression and why you should never feel guilt for choosing both family and career. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
