Samin Bhan, founder and CEO of Lookupp, is establishing "Lookup Zones" across college campuses to help young people reclaim in-person connection in a screen-saturated world. Samin shares the middle-school brunch moment that sparked his mission, why he chose to build a nonprofit instead of joining traditional high school clubs, and how he's designing a "people time app" that rewards presence instead of screen time.
From grit and entrepreneurship to the mental health impacts of digital overuse, this conversation explores how one Gen Z founder is reframing technology, not as the enemy, but as a tool that must serve human connection. If you care about mental health, digital well-being, entrepreneurship, or the future of social connection, this episode will challenge how you think about presence in the modern age.
