Running a business is exciting, but also stressful. Founders often work long hours, make tough decisions, and carry a lot of pressure. This can affect not only their mental health but also how well their business grows. In West Africa, it can be even harder because mental health support is limited, and talking about stress or anxiety is often seen as taboo.

Healthy Founders, Healthy Companies brings together founders from the region to talk openly about these challenges. They will share their experiences and give practical advice on how to manage stress, avoid burnout, and take care of your mental health while running a startup.

Founders will talk about dealing with pressure, balancing work and personal life, and creating a positive environment for their teams. The discussion will also cover ways the startup community can support mental health, such as mentorship, peer networks, and helpful policies.

Attendees will learn simple strategies to keep their minds healthy, build stronger teams, and run businesses that last. The session shows that being a successful founder is not just about raising money or growing fast, it’s also about staying healthy and happy.

Join us on Friday, May 29th, at 5pm, for this important talk. Whether you are a founder, investor, or startup supporter, you will leave with ideas to help yourself and your team thrive.
