Welcome to Vulnerable, the first ever podcast dedicated to exploring founder mental health, powered by Founders Taboo. I’ll be sitting down with founders from pre-seed, to Series A, to Exit/IPO, Angel investors and VCs from around the world, to get vulnerable... We’re breaking down the stigma attached to talking about your mental health as a founder. Far too many founders and entrepreneurs suffer because they’re afraid to speak about their challenges. Well not anymore.

How I built one of the fastest growing eSports companies to exit with ADHD, depression, and anxiety: Roei Samuel, CEO Connectd & Angel Investor

This episode is powered by Founders Taboo, the Headspace for Founders

Roei is a sufferer of ADHD, depression and anxiety and details in this episode his journey with the conditions.

Roei has founded two companies, RealSport (acquired) & Connectd. RealSport grew to a community of over 7million monthly users across UK, USA & Australia. After RealSport was acquired in 2018, he moved into the investment space.

This connected him to an entirely new community - but many of the frustrations he felt as a Founder were also true as an investor and start-up advisor. There was a distinct lack of diversity and accessibility in investment opportunities for start-ups. All the same types of deals were going to the same group of investors - stifling innovation for both the founders and potential investors.
