Ep 64. On the investor experience and its impact on entrepreneurial mental health

NAKED by The Future Farm

This week’s episode is a special one as Vladi and Nektarios talk about the role of investors on entrepreneurial mental health and the fundraising experience. They talk about the personal - and sometimes painful - experiences that they’re currently going through in their own fundraising journeys; how it is having an impact on their teams; and whether investors should see entrepreneurs like humans (listen to our previous conversations with Dr. Michael Freeman for more on this topic). They also share some of their stressors, the ambiguity of the whole experience, and how to deal with the elements that are out of their control. This all leads to the introduction of something we have been working on for some time, The Future Farm’s masterclass on ‘how to become a compassionate investor’, where we are inviting investors to discover actionable tools, resources, and best practices to support founders’ mental health across their investment practices.
