The Struggle

Startups demand everything. But burnout serves no one.

My Approach

  • Set boundaries (try to)
  • Sleep matters
  • Exercise helps
  • Friends outside work

The Reality

Sometimes you pull all-nighters. Sometimes you skip meals. But make it the exception, not the rule.

Your health is the business's most important asset.
