Get ready to uncover the mysteries of life! In our 119th episode, "Through the Looking Glass," we host the legendary hotelier, world-class community builder, five-time New York Times bestselling author, and head of hospitality at Airbnb: 🔷 Chip Conley 🔷 But we're not exploring hotels or travel. We're here to dive into something much more profound: why life gets better with age 😎 Chip is no stranger to reinvention. He's spent his career defying expectations and breaking new ground. At the age of 26, he became the youngest person ever to run a major hotel chain. He's since gone on to build and sell multiple businesses, write best-selling books, and inspire millions of people around the world. A few years ago, Chip had a wake-up call. He realized that our culture has a terrible bias against aging. We see it as a time of decline, of loss, of slowing down. But Chip believes that the second half of life can be even richer, more meaningful, and more fulfilling than the first; now running Modern Elder Academy. MEA is about reframing the concept of aging. It's about seeing it not as a decline, but as a time of growth, wisdom, and purpose. It's about using our experience to help others, to make a difference in the world, and to live life to the fullest. He draws on his own experiences, as well as the wisdom of elders from around the world, to show us how to tap into the unique gifts that come with age. Join us as Chip takes us on a journey through the looking glass. He'll share his new book on how us how to see aging in a new light, and how to unlock the potential that lies within each and every one of us.

Attention Founders: Whats in Your AI Tool belt? 🔧
Many startups are finding an edge, and the impact of AI tools is growing. What tools to use and when? Fortunately for us, we've got 3 experts in the house:
Nolie MacDonald, CEO Clean AI Technologies
Jim Hornthal, M34 Capital
Valerie Trask, University of Washington
AI tools are increasingly becoming indispensable for startups in today's competitive business landscape. One key reason is the ability of AI to enhance operational efficiency and productivity. Startups often operate with limited resources and manpower, making it crucial to make the most of available resources. AI tools can automate routine tasks, such as data entry, customer support, and even marketing campaigns, allowing startups to allocate their human resources to more strategic and creative endeavors. This not only reduces operational costs but also accelerates growth by enabling the startup to focus on core business activities (which is more fun anyway) 🥳
Another critical aspect is AI's capability to personalize customer experiences. Startups can use AI to analyze customer data, preferences, and behaviors, allowing them to tailor their products or services to individual customers. This personalized approach not only enhances customer satisfaction but also increases customer retention rates. Furthermore, AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can provide 24/7 support to customers, improving the overall customer service experience. By harnessing AI, startups can compete with more established players in the market, delivering a level of service and personalization that would be challenging to achieve solely through traditional methods. In essence, AI tools empower startups to scale and thrive in a highly dynamic and competitive business environment.Big thanks to our sponsors:

Free Speech.
The Freedom of Assembly.
Freedom to own property.
Freedom of privacy.
These are all fundamental human rights, which 🔷 Alex Gladstein 🔷 champions at the nexus of tech, money, and politics. And there is a lot to fix.
1/2 the world is an under authoritarian regime, where these rights don’t exist.
That’s over 4 billion people suffering in literacy, life expectancy, opportunity, and freedom.
At the core of the problem is currency control, corruption, and manipulation. Traditional financial systems easily allow oppressive regimes to freeze the funds of those rebel fighters. Meanwhile, those fighting against despots leverage Bitcoin because its decentralized and borderless.
We’ll explore Liberties vs. Entitlements (negative and positive rights), which countries are getting it right, and how Bitcoin is changing the dynamics of freedom all across the world. In short:
💰 BTC is a sovereign savings account (meaning a gov’t can’t print more)
💰 BTC is an unstoppable payments network (sanctions resistant)
💰 BTC has no remittance (predatory fees which can take weeks)
Gladstein is a celebrated author and Chief Strategy Officer of the Human Rights Foundation where he’s worked since 2007. What is the HRF? A charity and non-profit which promotes and protects individual rights and freedoms in authoritarian societies around the world. Can we build systems that protect us from our own human nature? When did we change from ‘ruled by rules, not rulers?’
Alex has been described as “sensitive to the suffering of the world, and has dedicated his life to finding solutions to that suffering.” Tune in to explore the emerging grey economy and how we can build a future that’s bright for all of us.
