This week we’re joined by the amazing Karen Kerr — founder and voice behind Tethered — for Episode 47: “From Scotland to Silicon Valley: The Mindful Path of Tethered”.

Karen takes us on a powerful journey: from her Scottish roots, through personal loss, to co-founding a mindfulness app that blends culture, heritage and mental-wellbeing. She opens up about creating something deeply authentic that resonates globally.

🎧 Key takeaways for leaders, founders and change-makers:

How tapping into “place and belonging” can power meaningful mindfulness.

Why retention matters: Tethered boasts an industry-leading ~84% user retention.

The intersection of creativity, tech and mental health—as seen through the lens of a Scottish-born, US-based founder.
