Serial Entrepreneur's Mental Health Mission After Two Eight-Figure Exits
What happens when chips on your shoulder fuel two successful exits but leave you empty at the finish line? Tom Telford sold his institutional finance companies for eight figures by age 37, only to discover his anger-driven motivation vanished the moment he achieved financial freedom. In this episode of Startups with Stu with host Stuart Draper, Tom Telford, shares his transformation from proving doubters wrong to building LÉVO Mind Care with three women partners focused on the biological side of mental health treatment. Stuart Draper explores Tom's disciplined goal-setting approach that turned a struggling student with ADHD into a serial entrepreneur, his strategic pivot from banking to credit unions during the 2008 crisis, and the prayer-based mentorship philosophy that connected him with industry giants. Tom reveals the biopsychosocial model of mental health care, explains why physical assessment often precedes therapy, and discusses his mission to become the most generous mental health business owner ever while elevating women leaders in healthcare.
