Startup culture glorifies burnout

Startup culture glorifies overwork. But billion-dollar visions need more than hustle.

They need you at your peak.

What if protecting your health isn't just smart - it's strategic?

What if protecting your health is the ultimate power move?

Join The Founder Health Coalition.

Startup culture worships hustle

Slamming Red Bulls. Consecutive all-nighters. Uber Eats on speed dial.

Having no personal life? A badge of honor.

We've built a culture that doesn't just ignore these warning signs – it celebrates them.

But it comes at a cost

  • [/]

    87.7% OF ENTREPRENEURS SUFFER AT LEAST ONE MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION.

  • [/]

    10% OF STARTUPS FAIL DUE TO FOUNDER BURNOUT.

  • [/]

    FOUNDERS AND CEOS AGE 1.5 YEARS FASTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE.

The truth is...

Building something extraordinary isn't just hustle, hustle, hustle.

It's clarity, resilience, and energy.

The smartest founders know

  • [+]

    MENTAL CLARITY BETTER STRATEGY.

  • [+]

    RESILIENCE BOUNCE BACK FROM FAILURES.

  • [+]

    ENERGY KEEP GOING LONG AFTER EVERYONE ELSE QUITS.

Professional athletes spend millions on their health to be at their physical and mental prime.

Yet founders build world-changing companies with depleting bodies and minds.

That's why we created

The Founder Health Coalition

A movement for builders who believe peak performance starts with peak health.

Because the companies that change the world

Are led by founders who refuse to burn out on the way.

Take the first step toward building a company—and a life—that lasts.
