A Chat with Rob Stephenson, CEO at FormScore: Episode Notes

In this episode we are joined by Rob Stephenson, CEO and Founder at FormScore. Rob is not only a phenomenal entrepreneur, but is also a very inspiring human being, set to build a well-being movement backed by technology. 

During our conversation we talk about the struggle of dealing with bi-polar disorder, as well Rob’s plans for FormScore. Here are a few takeaways: 

  • Bi-polar disorder is characterized by extremes of mood. People affected by this condition may jump from depression to mania. While depression may have individuals feel like they are in a lethargic state, manic episodes could lead them to take irrational decisions and take huge risks, among other things.
  • Sometimes, Rob sees his own condition as a superpower, as it leads to moments of great creativity inspiration. Unfortunately, these usually come at a cost. Being open about his own situation has helped him a great deal.
  • FormScore is first and foremost a movement to help people become more intentional about their mental well-being, and help them facilitate peer support with people they care about.
  • To have a blend of different people in your FormScore circle may help generate enough resilience to deal with whatever life throws in your direction.
  • FormScore can be very effective for companies to aggregate insights at a team level, and therefore identify mental well-being trends in real time.
