In this episode of Where Should I Invest, Sarah Larbi sits down with registered psychotherapist Samir Boulazreg to explore the mental and emotional side of entrepreneurship, investing, and high performance. They unpack how anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and burnout quietly impact ambitious professionals and why waiting for the “perfect time” often keeps people stuck. Samir shares practical frameworks around mindfulness, movement, nutrition, and therapy, and explains why mental health work isn’t about “fixing yourself,” but about building awareness and resilience over time. This conversation is especially relevant for entrepreneurs, investors, and high achievers who are building toward financial freedom but struggling to stay present along the way.
