This is the 10% happier podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Hello everybody, how are we doing? I've got a quick solo episode for you today because I've got a a big announcement, or at least big to me. As you may remember, last September, so about 15 months ago, I announced that I was leaving the meditation app that I co-founded and launching a new Substack.

I really did not know what I was doing at the time, to be completely honest. I was a little bit shaken up about the parting of ways from my old app and uh casting around for what to do next. My Substack really began basically as a stripped-down newsletter. What was really cool and heartening was that it quickly grew into a thriving community and a pretty expansive offering featuring weekly live meditation and Q<unk>A sessions, a bustling chat, a growing library of guided meditations, access to the ad-free version of this podcast, plus special meditation challenges and events. Pretty cool.

However, as we grew, we were spending a lot of time listening to you, our listeners and subscribers, to learn more about what you really wanted. And what quickly became clear was that while you liked what we were doing over on Substack, what you really wanted was an app, a neat and tidy spot where you could access all the stuff we're doing. So we have now built you one. It just launched. It's called 10% with Dan Harris.
