Re-Learning How to Reconnect with Spencer Rudey and Ailise Beales
Manage episode 427976653 series 3367733
In this episode we welcome Five and Go! founder Spencer Rudey and actress Ailise Beales to discuss what inspired them to create an app designed to improve mental health by encouraging real-world interactions and meaningful connections. From its initial conception all the way through a successful launch, this episode highlights how the app's mission can serve as an invaluable tool following the U.S. Surgeon General's efforts to call attention to a social media-induced loneliness epidemic.
This conversation delves into the unique aspects of Five and Go, including its use of augmented reality to enhance user fulfillment, insights into how Five and Go is supported by both users and mental health professionals, and discusses the broader implications of rampant loneliness in the 21st century. With a successful decade behind it, Spencer and Ailise offer a glimpse into how Five and Go! aims to foster a more connected and fulfilled society instead of an isolated, empty one.
