By November 2025, I noticed I was exhibiting Founder Burnout. I’ve been running AgroCenta for close to 10 years now and this was something I dreaded. Founder Burnout is a state of chronic physical, mental and emotional exhaustion resulting from intense, long hours and identity-driven stress of running a startup. It typically manifests as emotional numbness, cynicism, reduced effectiveness and decision fatigue.
Mine manifested as loss of joy where certain wins brought me no excitement, emotional numbness, fatigue and insomnia. By January, I needed some pills to help me sleep at night. My blood pressure was hovering above the normal numbers.
