Learn a founder-focused approach to anxiety at TC All Stage

Startups demand constant decision-making and pressure-filled pivots, which bring big emotional swings. It’s no wonder anxiety shows up at every stage. But what if it didn’t have to be a liability?

At TechCrunch All Stage 2025 on July 15 at Boston’s SoWa Power Station, Dr. David H. Rosmarin, clinical psychologist, author, and Harvard Medical School professor, will lead a refreshingly honest roundtable session that challenges how founders think about fear and pressure.

His roundtable, “Thriving with Anxiety: How Startup Founders Can Turn Fear, Pressure, and Self-Doubt into Their Greatest Advantage,” isn’t about “overcoming” anxiety. It’s about using it as a strategic advantage.
