    Absolutely loved this TED Talk! Ikey Ajavon really nails the difference between sleep and true rest. It’s such an eye-opener to think about how we spend our downtime. Can’t wait to share this with friends!

    I dislike the current theme of surrounding yourself with positive people. No one who is authentic is positive all the time. A true friend stays with you when you are positive, and in the down times too.

      I don’t think he meant that exactly, though. I think he meant those who truly drain you because of their constant negativity.

    While the ideas presented here are very noble, I doubt that a typical person who has a regular Job would have enough time for each of those
    8 hr sleep
    9 hr work
    2 hr commute
    2 hr eating breakfast/lunch/dinner

    You are left with around 3 hours to yourself, which are not a lot do anything but either go to gym/ catch up with friends (assuming you guys are free at the same time) or doom scroll

    Btw I haven’t included events like you have to do your own laundry, get your groceries and other things normal humans do to sustain themselves.

    Obviously the nature of your job has a huge part in all this which can help doing more of the types of relaxation, but normal corporate jobs are not over even after you have logged out, your phone can ring anytime if there is an issue coz as you go up the ladder you have to be always available 🥹🫥. In that case even sensory isolation/relaxation is a luxury, rest are just a myth at this point.

This week’s guest is Ayal Yogev, co-founder and CEO of Anjuna Security, who has experienced both sides of the startup journey: scaling quickly during the boom years and then making the incredibly difficult decision to lay off a significant portion of his team when the market shifted.

From growing to 75 employees to scaling back and rebuilding, Yogev learned firsthand that the hardest part of leadership isn’t hiring fast, it’s making tough decisions with care, transparency, and integrity.

In this episode, Isabelle Johannessen and Yogev unpack what it really means to lead through layoffs with compassion and how founders can support their teams even in the most challenging moments. They also explore the lessons learned from scaling too quickly and how to build a more resilient company the second time around.
