RT 21 | Welcome Back to #REALTALK
Welcome to Season 2 of #REALTALK! This season will be filled with an incredible lineup of tech founders and investors. Lots of business leaders will be interviewed to shed light on what entrepreneurs experience in other aspects of life, especially touching on the importance of mental health.
For those who are new to our podcast, #REALTALK is always open to helping entrepreneurs take care of their mental health. Entrepreneurs are not exempted from this kind of battle. Anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma are also part of their experience as entrepreneurs. How do they overcome the mental health issues that they have experienced? That’s why we capture real and human stories of tech's most prolific leaders, as inspiration to other entrepreneurs who are currently experiencing mental health issues.
Entrepreneurship gives us different and unique experiences. Some may be successful on this chosen path, but for some, it is the other way around. During the COVID-19 pandemic we are facing, it took a huge toll on entrepreneurs. A high percentage of entrepreneurs suffered not just financially, but also mentally.
The state of entrepreneurs’ mental health is important; that is why we are here. The #REALTALK team has read and compiled over 100 articles about mental health and how it is tied with entrepreneurs. We will be launching a benchmark report, aggregating and summarizing all of that research for you. Stay connected to us on social media (@realtalkmvmt), as we post daily mental health content from Mon-Fri. Stay tuned and enjoy!
