Why TOMS Founder Blake Mycoskie Chose ENOUGH Over Everything

Description

<p>Blake Mycoskie built TOMS Shoes into a $650 million empire, pioneered the &quot;buy-one-give-one&quot; model that revolutionized social enterprise, and made over 40 of his first employees multimillionaires. Yet three years after selling the company to focus on family, he found himself in a dark place—depressed, isolated, and questioning whether financial success could ever feel like enough. Today, he&#39;s channeling that hard-won wisdom into ENOUGH, a new lifestyle brand that is fully owned by a nonprofit with a mission to help millions of people understand that their inherent worth isn&#39;t tied to external achievements. In this exclusive interview, Blake shares how he recovered from post-exit depression, why separating your identity from your business is critical for founders, and how the philosophy of &quot;enough&quot; paradoxically unlocks better performance and sustainable ambition. </p>
