A 4-PART ORIGINAL SERIES

Since 2006, Techstars has helped hundreds of startups succeed, both as
businesses and as people. This original 4-part documentary series focuses on the
most common mental health issues facing entrepreneurs, told through the stories
of some remarkable people — and the mental health professionals who work with
people in need.

If you or someone you know are struggling with addiction, depression or suicidal
thoughts, or feel that you are in crisis, please seek help immediately.

BRAD’S STORY

Highly driven and successful people often suffer from mental health problems,
too. Brad Feld, Cofounder of Techstars and Managing Partner of Foundry Group,
describes his experiences with depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder, and
their impact on him personally as well as professionally, as an entrepreneur and
an investor.

balance, "So you can continue being your authentic self without letting stress
and burnout take over."

Anxiety, panic attacks, and obsessive-compulsive disorder are difficult to live

Senior Implementation Consultant of Ecosystem Development, shares his stories

business and growing a family.
