Eric Kostelnik has built and sold multiple companies, and somehow still manages to be one of the most grounded humans I know. In this conversation, we get into what happens after the exit. The identity shift. The silence. The need to re-anchor. We talk about fatherhood, the myth of "having it all together," and what structure really means when you're no longer chasing a finish line.

Then we go deep on consumer AI, mental health, dopamine loops, and what it means to build products that actually make people feel better. Eric’s honest, sharp, and full of unexpected insight. This one's a mix of wisdom, real talk, and rabbit holes. Hope you enjoy it.
