It doesn’t surprise me that I feel down and flat as I sit here in the Charlotte, North Carolina airport on my way to Lexington, Kentucky on day 16 of a 19 day trip. I know many entrepreneurs who deal with different levels of depression.

It was big news in Charlotte, North Carolina where AvidXchange announced the groundbreaking on a new headquarters complex in the N.C. Through YEO, I got to know Mike and Cindy (who is also an entrepreneur and was in YEO) very well. Music Factory. We could do our unique thing alongside one of the best fintech investors in the industry.
