Max Stossel is an award-winning poet (whose short films have been seen over 40 million times) advisor to Tech for Humanity, successful filmmaker and all-around wise human who I'm grateful to call a brother.

In this poetic + lyrical conversation we explore:

🖋️ The journey that led him from designing notification systems at a social media company to exploring the art and science of attention.
📱 The dangers of smartphone addiction + practical questions as users that we can be asking ourselves
📝 How he describes his work as a blend of poetry, standup comedy and storytelling
💔 How he's found the courage to lean into painful experiences and get curious about heartbreak
🦅 How his writing workshop on avoidance and imposter syndrome led to my publishing a short poetry book.
🙋‍♂️ His experience and insights from leading men's groups and how this work has changed his life for the better
