Ever wonder how (and if) it’s possible for a founder to stay sane through the grueling process of raising funding?

There’s no shortage of success stories and post-mortem articles addressing the technical aspects of venture financing--like how many investors you should speak with, your valuation, how to pick a partner at the VC firm and timing your raise.
