Building Something Better

Bringing Mindfulness to the masses


Listen Later

Mindfulness is for everyone. So many of us just don’t realize it yet.
Mindfulness is not just for some people who are spiritual or privileged or educated. It’s a simple practice of remembering to be present.
For the most part, humans are not great at being present—at least not in “modern” society. I’m not great it. I’ve gotten better over the years and continue to improve, but I wouldn’t say that I’m great at it.
Because it’s far too easy to forget to be present and dive back into our past and dissect what’s happened—or—to imagine a future and what might happen and how we’ll handle it.
This is what drives me to build something better and create a tool that I’ve been craving. Perhaps you’ve been craving it too.
I don’t want Mindfulness to be hard. I don’t want it to be complicated or “good” or for some people. I want it to be as easy as choosing a different app to tap—instead of the ones with endless scrolling.
I’m committed to Recollect honoring humanity—which is to respect our individual preferences, beliefs, and experiences. To not judge who is worthy is who is not. But to create a framework that is so lovely to use that anyone can fill it with whatever content matters to them.
We’re on our way. We’re making progress. We’ve got our first investor (super exciting) and we’re raising the money we need to take this next level.
If you haven’t heard: We’ve been testing the prototype version of Recollect with great success—if you’d like to join the community that’s using the prototype, please head to recollectbetter.com and request an invite!
