Robbie Bent on the Emotional Rollercoaster of Startup Leadership and Balance

In this new episode, our host Mark MacLeod sits down with Robbie Bent, the visionary co-founder and CEO of Othership, a transformative space that combines sauna, ice baths, breathwork, sound, and community to redefine wellness in urban settings. 

Bent's innovative approach to tackling loneliness and fostering genuine connections in major cities through unique physical experiences is nothing short of revolutionary.

Robbie Bent's story is not your average entrepreneurial tale. With a background marked by personal challenges, including a battle with substance abuse, Bent's mission with Othership is deeply personal. 

His commitment to creating a healthy, inclusive space where individuals can meet, heal, and grow together is the foundation of Othership's rapid growth trajectory. Bent's insights into the power of community, health, and wellness as tools for transformation are both inspiring and instructive.

Since 1999, I have sat at the right-hand side of the leaders of high growth technology companies as either a CFO, VC or deal maker. I served as CFO for software companies including Shopify (NYSE: SHOP) and Freshbooks. As a CFO I experienced outright failures, wildly profitable exits, and everything in between.

I was a General Partner in Real Ventures, Canada's largest and most active seed stage fund. My investments there include the fund's largest cash on cash and highest IRR returns to date. Most recently, I founded SurePath Capital Partners the leading investment bank for SMB SaaS companies where we did hundreds of millions in financing and exit transactions.
