How Does Dave Morin Protect Personal Time Inside a Startup?

Answer

Dave Morin told Jason Calacanis on Angel that a startup eats every free hour, so you schedule life first. Struggling founders should book yoga or meditation for an hour or ninety minutes, cut sugar and alcohol, and eat more plants. A date night is not optional. At Sunrise, which he started with Columbia neuroscientist Rebecca Brachman, they funded phase 2 trials. Ketamine, including IV trials at Stanford for people who cannot get out of bed, can ease a crisis for weeks, he said, but only with a psychiatrist. Not at a rave, and not in a clinic run like dialysis. He pointed listeners to Michael Pollan's How to Change Your Mind.
