What if life insurance didn’t just protect you financially but actually helped you live longer? In this episode, we sit down with Ben Mason, co-founder and CEO of Athlete, a startup that’s disrupting the insurance industry by pricing based on fitness, instead of based on risk level. Ben shares his journey from advertising to entrepreneurship, the hard lessons he learned about chasing ideas vs. listening to customers, and why he believes mental health doesn’t have to be a sunk cost for founders. We dive into the challenges of launching a product in two countries at once, the myths that hold startups back, and how Athlete is planning to navigate data privacy concerns for its customers. Ben’s experience and skillsets are extensive, and I took away so much even from our short time together. You don’t want to miss this one!
