The Importance of Community in a Digital World

Today’s guest, Robbie Bent, and I hit it off right away – kindred spirits, you might say.

He's the CEO and co-founder of Othership, which is building a global community to solve the loneliness epidemic, operating the first emotional training classes in North America through a combination of beautiful social spaces, saunas, ice baths, and the leading breathwork mobile app. 

I am a big fan of the app and will absolutely be attending the workshop tour’s next visit to Austin.

Guests on this show often share solutions to what ails the world. But sometimes they come with a hefty price tag. What I love about breathwork is that anyone can do it, anytime you want, for free. And in my experience, it can definitely transform your life in the most powerful of ways.

If you're someone who struggles with anxiety, depression, addiction, or just about any other mental or emotional challenges, this will definitely be a really important episode for you. And hey, if your life's perfect and you want to make it even better, there's a lot here for you too.
