After 16 months trying to fit myself and live the startup world for a second time, I left my last gig in March 2026. As someone who had the privilege of combining happiness and professional life progression for most of my career, I have a really strong sense when those are not well aligned.

There was nothing wrong with the company or my partners: **I was the problem**.
