Does Aline Lerner Say Founding Interviewing.io Made Her Happy?

Aline Lerner tells Courtland on the Indie Hackers Podcast that she does not know if she is happy, but she is happier than she was before Interviewing.io. In about four years the company reached multiple millions of dollars in yearly revenue. She says a founder can be tactically miserable, from a revenue drop or people leaving, and still be too busy to be existentially miserable. If the work feels like it matters, she will trade day-to-day stress for the feeling of having no purpose. This is the first job, she says, where she feels she is doing what she is supposed to be doing.
