324: לנצח את הלופ - הפסיכולוגיה של הפאונדר.ית

The podcast explores the mental and emotional challenges faced by startup founders. Dr. Eldad Rom, a psychologist, discusses the high failure rates of startups due to issues among founders, including intra-psychic problems like panic attacks and sleep paralysis, which are often triggered by high-pressure events such as fundraising. He emphasizes the importance of habits, physical activity, and maintaining strong relationships to foster psychological well-being. Dr. Rom advises founders to view building a startup as a process of personal development, addressing personal "buggies" early on and integrating self-care into their demanding schedules. He also highlights the need for founders to adapt their leadership styles and communication as their companies evolve.
