Mental Health Awareness Week highlights the growing mental health challenges faced by small business founders, with recent research indicating that over half experience increased burnout and nearly 18% report worsening mental health. In response, Virgin StartUp is hosting a 'walk & talk' event in London, enabling founders to foster connections and prioritize their wellbeing in a supportive environment. The event addresses common barriers to mental health, such as lack of time and high expenses. Participating founders, like Avi Sharma, emphasize the importance of prioritizing self-care while navigating the pressures of entrepreneurship.
Now on his fourth business, Avi's wellbeing has had rollercoaster highs and lows - navigating loneliness and immense pressure to succeed after quitting a stable and lucrative banking career.
This event invites business owners to take a break from their busy lives and encourages them to tap into start-up support and connect with their peers through meaningful conversations in a relaxed environment.
