From the growing role of Artificial Intelligence in our lives to challenges cultivating focus in a landscape of distractions, my guest Steven Puri and I explore how to stay human in an increasingly technology-oriented world. He’s the co-founder of Centered, an app for finding focus and getting things done with mindfulness, intention and with the support of community. Join us as we discuss ways to reduce stress and burnout and make more space in your life for what matters most.
Co-Founder, Centered
Steven's first jobs were as a newscaster/interviewer for the #1 youth news show in the DC/Baltimore market and then as a junior software engineer & Thomas J. Watson Scholar at IBM. After attending USC in Los Angeles, he fell ass-backward into film production and produced computer-generated visual effects for 14 movies, eventually selling his CGI company to the German media conglomerate Das Werk. Steven then produced some indie films with friends and eventually went studio-side to develop and produce live-action features as a VP at Fox and an EVP at Kurtzman-Orci at DreamWorks. Steven recently got back into building tech companies and is the Co-Founder of Centered, a Flow State app that provides focus music, distraction blocking and AI-powered coaches to get you into the Zone...and help you knock your work out.
