🧘 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 is a critical yet often overlooked topic, and one that Tzahi Weisfeld, VP and GM of Intel Ignite, is truly passionate about. Drawing from his experience helping build over 1,000 startups, in the video below Tzahi emphasizes the importance of breaking the stigma around mental health and founders investing in their well-being.

Here are his tips for navigating the startup journey with resilience:

🫂 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀: Your significant other often serves as your core support system – nurture this relationship to strengthen your foundation.

🫶 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵: Seek professional help if needed. Amazing therapists can make the journey easier.
