Dory sponsored athlete Tez Steinberg arrived in Australia yesterday after a grueling 126-day solo row from Hawaii in a seven-meter rowboat. We were proud to put the Dory logo on his boat back in 2020 when he rowed from California to Hawaii, and again last year when he asked us to join his team for this 5,000 mile adventure. Tez has shown us that anything is possible when you have the right team around you. Now, you can find the team that will propel you to greatness when you join a Performance Group session. If you're ready to experience the inspiration you get from a group of high-performers, now is the perfect time to apply to join a Performance Group and receive your first session for free.

Our founder Aaron Houghton was recently featured for his unique stress management techniques in a blog post by Entrepreneurs' Organization, the global network of million dollar founders. Here's an excerpt of what EO found so interesting. "The immense pressure of building a $100 million company over 10 years created burnout and anxiety. I needed more support, so being a founder, I created it. I run the world’s largest community (10,000+ members) dedicated to stress reduction for entrepreneurs: Dory. We have a mental resilience training app called Coach Dory, live peer groups, and we deliver keynotes and workshops around the world. I created Dory as a unique stress-reduction strategy to help me understand and improve my mental state. Coach Dory checks in on me daily and asks me to rate myself on seven key factors of my stress response: calm, emotional control, energy, personal identity, focus, satisfaction, and positivity. The app calculates a mental resilience score on a 100-point scale, much like my Oura Sleep tracking ring or the Whoop band give me scores about my physiological recovery. I use the app every day to understand and improve my mental resilience." — Aaron Houghton, EO Colorado, founder and CEO, Dory https://lnkd.in/dEvesWGe

You’ve never had a conversation like this with your friends or family or coworkers before. And you probably never will, because there’s something delightfully different about being supported by a small group of attentive strangers. Seriously, you have to try it. In a Performance Group you can share things you can't share anywhere else. You can hear personal stories and experiences you won’t hear anywhere else. And you can have the breakthroughs and get the inspiration you won't get anywhere else. After you find your Performance Group, your life will never be the same. Hey we get it, friends and family and coworkers are great. But the problem is, they're all biased because they rely on you, and their limited perspectives are holding you back. If you're ready to start moving forward again, now is the perfect time to apply to join a Performance Group and receive your first session for free. https://lnkd.in/g57Q5sap

Just like wearable devices give you scores about the health of your body, the Coach Dory app gives you a score about the health of your mind, so you can track the improvements you’re making. Dory makes self-care simple. What’s your self-care score?

If you’re not yet following along, Dory powered endurance athlete and adventurer Tez Steinberg begins his 100+ day solo ocean row from Hawaii to Australia soon. We’re providing coverage on our social channels and cheering him on. Safe travels, Tez, as you cross the Pacific Ocean with only the power of your body and mind. Stay physically strong and mentally resilient out there!

Congratulations, Brian Giboney, for becoming a Leader in the Dory community. Thank you for your support. Members of the Dory community support themselves by finding their best plays while also training Dory to make smarter recommendations for everyone who uses the app.

Can you imagine the mental resilience it takes to spend months alone at sea in a rowboat? This November my friend Tez Steinberg will attempt something unthinkable: rowing from from Hawaii to Australia, solo and non-stop. He’s on a mission to raise funds for ocean plastics solutions.  His campaign called the United World Challenge just launched. Check out the link in the comments! 🚀 We're so inspired by Tez – and when you check out his video, you will be, too. https://lnkd.in/gcR9PEZU Will you join me in supporting this mission that our world needs so much?
