533. Using Data for Self-Discovery with Chris Dancy
Manage episode 510038168 series 2847311
What if your calendar could predict your mental health?
Meet Chris Dancy – once dubbed “The World’s Most Connected Human” – who didn’t just track his steps and calories. He tracked his soul. From mood mapping and ambient data to organizing his apps by values instead of function, Chris built a system to actually understand himself.
But here’s the twist: it’s not about more data. It’s about better data.
🧠 He mapped every app to Maslow’s hierarchy. 💡 He hacked his phone to create “cyber mindfulness.” 📉 He even engineered synchronicities by journaling meaningful coincidences.
And no, it’s not a Silicon Valley stunt. It's spiritual, emotional, and deeply human.
