Coach

Not gonna lie, this project has been a lot of fun. As many of you know a handful of friends and I dreamt this up 6-7+ years ago when crypto was just getting big. Bringing accountability/transparency to social right when it was at it’s toxic peak. It’s evolved a bit to trying to get people dopamine hits for growing instead of scrolling. To those of you friends who have given it a try, thank you! To the rest of you, I hope you give it a shot. In a time where big tech is overleveraging tech to prioritize profits, it’s time we leverage tech to prioritize people & real connection.

Social media asks what you're doing right now. We ask what you're building toward. Just shipped Dream Board, set your life goals, customize your cards, and get daily challenges tied to your actual dreams & goals. Matchmaking by shared/similar dreams coming soon "The joy that isn't shared dies young." - Anne Young. Shoutout @jposhaughnessy for getting this on my radar at the perfect time. Had a recent bug that prevented new users from getting full experience, apologies for that, DM me if it affected you and I'll make it right!

@liveoutloudLOLx LFGROW!

Last week on Live out Loud we shipped: good news at the top of every feed, 101 daily challenges that pay you to connect and move, 50 free coins on signup, community-sourced growth ideas, Sign in with Apple, and a full redesign. Social that rewards you to grow, not scroll.

"It's a useless coin that shouldn't have pumped"

We just shipped a feature where the top of your feed is literally good news. Every day. No algorithm choosing it. No rage bait. Just something good that happened in the world. Social media broke this. We're fixing it.

@liveoutloudLOLx LFGrow! Liveoutloud.live

@jposhaughnessy Love it Jim. Not enough sharing in a world where social has taken over and disconnects us, instead of connecting us.

Two thoughts from Anne Sexton “The Joy that isn’t shared, I’ve heard, dies young.” "Don't bite till you know if it's bread or stone."

War is $USELESS Everything is $USELESS

She literally explained that the discomfort of discipline is nothing compared to the pain of regret.

Hits home. Love it! Working on @liveoutloudLOLx for this reason. A social layer that rewards you for growing instead of scrolling. Daily coin cap so you aren’t incentivized to doomscroll. Matchmaking for everything good (connection layer for nonprofits?). Users vote on features and a majority of profits go back to the community. Gamify life to give back instead of take. Your work at CHT inspired it. Would love your feedback. liveoutloud.live

Tonight, CHT is joining leaders across the digital wellbeing movement in promoting the trailer for the Your Attention Please, a documentary premiering this week at @SXSW about how the attention economy is shaping childhood, mental health, and human connection. We’re proud to be a part of the coalition of organizations standing together for a safer digital future for our kids. Watch the trailer, explore resources from participating organizations, and take action where you can. #StandForTheirAttention #YourAttentionPlease #SXSW2026 #SXSW

Current state of mind: Useless

Sixteen years ago, one man stood alone on a grassy hill at a music festival in Washington State, USA, and started dancing by himself. People glanced over and looked away. Some laughed. His roommate leaned in and warned him people were filming him. He did not stop. Then one stranger got up and joined him. Then another. Then the hillside tipped. Within minutes, hundreds of people were sprinting from across the field to be part of something that, thirty seconds earlier, had been one man being laughed at in a field. Someone filming from higher up the hill said quietly: "See what one man can do. One man can change the world." The clip spread across the internet in 2009. Entrepreneur Derek Sivers played it at a TED conference to explain how movements actually begin. Not with the first person brave enough to start, he argued, but with the first person willing to join them. Collin Wynter, the man dancing alone, later said he had no idea he had done anything special. He was just tired of watching everyone sit still.

"Mom, how did we get so poor?" "Your father attempted to outperform the S&P 500."

@AutismCapital @liveoutloudLOLx is building this. Grow, don’t scroll.

Life pro tip. Not enough people talk about this. The secret to having a "fulfilling" life is doing new things. Radically doing new things. Consistently. Every day. New activities, people, goals, even something as simple as trying new foods. Life feels longer when you're a kid because every day is packed with almost infinite amount of new learning. As you get older, you've already acclimated to your environment, the new inputs stop, so your perception of time speeds up drastically. You fall into routine, which is a time accelerant. If you want to feel like you have a long infinite lifespan, like you did as a child, you MUST be having new experiences, which slows time down.
