Stress amongst Corporate Millennials and Startup Entrepreneurs, a rising concern in 2020

The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent nationwide lockdown caught everyone unaware and ill-prepared. Such a global event of this massive scale is bound to have a significant psychological impact and it was no surprise witnessing mental health instability across age brackets and professional segments. But a gradual shift towards opening up about such concerns has helped a way out.

Looking at the scenario across segments in 2020, a concerning factor that has grabbed attention is the stress amongst startup founders. It's just not the working millennials and people in general who are engaging in the platforms but also the startup founders who too are engaging with experts on YourDOST's platform. Witnessing this spiked engagement, YourDOST has also facilitated a specific initiative called 'The Founders' Program' focused on providing consultation to the entrepreneurs wherein the organization is currently facilitating consultation to over 250+ entrepreneurs. 

YourDOST has seen an increased acceptance and 2x jump in utilisation of their counseling services across their clients. In comparison to the past 4 years, YourDOST in 2020, has seen an increased consultation in both the corporate and the entrepreneur segment by 140% The organization has added 100+ corporates in the last 3 quarters wherein it is facilitating various programs around emotional wellness related to remote working, reintegrating the workforce back to the office, layoffs, etc.
