S1 E14 - FOUNDERS UNPLUGGED - Hector Hughes - Unplugged

Join me for the Season One Finale with Hector Hughes, co-founder & CEO of Unplugged - the startup providing transformative digital detox experiences through off-grid cabin getaways in the English countryside. We have an enlightening conversation about how a 10-day silent meditation retreat in the Himalayas sparked the idea for Unplugged, the importance of taking time away from technology to reconnect with nature and ourselves, and the challenges and rewards of the startup journey over Unplugged's first 3 years.Hector shares his perspective on startup culture, finding work-life balance as a founder, and leading with self-awareness. We also discuss how Unplugged aims to move society towards valuing time spent offline and the role that 'unplugging' plays in well-being, creativity, and building self-knowledge.Hector offers insightful advice to fellow founders on embracing their strengths, optimizing for energy and psychological health, and not getting caught up in job titles. His parting words are a reminder that the future is malleable and that we have the power to shape it.Check out Hector's superhero-esque name on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/he....ctor-hughes-10082195 the transformative power of an Unplugged digital detox: https://unplugged.rest Want to know about me and ThinkWork? https://www.thinkwork.info/ Music: bensound.com License code: HUBW6ZIVX97N4KEC
