In this episode of Give It A Nudge, Steve is joined by Dr. Neetu Johnson, the Chief Medical Officer and Co- Founder of Prescribe Life. Neetu shares her journey from experiencing burnout in the demanding field of psychiatry to pioneering a platform focused on improving the mental health and overall well-being of founders.
Neetu explains how her personal burnout and dissatisfaction with traditional psychiatric practices led her to integrate Ayurveda and yoga into her approach, aiming to offer more holistic care. This approach laid the foundation for Prescribe Life, which is specifically designed to address the unique pressures founders face, such as founder burnout, intense work hours, and the emotional rollercoaster of entrepreneurship.
The conversation also covers the psychological traits of founders, including their risk-taking behaviour and the high incidence of neurodivergence like ADHD among entrepreneurs. Neetu emphasises the importance of comprehensive support systems for founders, akin to the team around a top athlete, to sustain their health and business performance.
Steve and Neetu discuss the potential role of venture capitalists in supporting founder well-being as part of their investment, suggesting that more comprehensive care could significantly enhance founders' long-term success and resilience.
