Founder Meditations

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Ant, CEO of a stealth startup—and after six years of never missing a day of meditation, I’m thrilled to share my first-ever Product Hunt launch. The Problem ⁉️ As a founder and former senior software engineer at Big Tech, I found traditional meditation super helpful for staying calm and centered—but I wanted something that didn’t just reduce stress, but also actively fueled the entrepreneurial drive and creativity I needed every day. Plus, I wanted something more personalized for unique situations I found myself in: like facing a lot of self-doubt before this very launch. 😅 Popular apps (like Waking Up and Headspace) are fantastic at the basics, but they often feel overwhelming with huge libraries and aren’t personalized enough. And none of the more recent “AI Meditation” apps are at the quality or depth I wanted. The Solution 😌 I’ve created an opinionated and personalized meditation practice. The goal? To develop a founder’s mindset–balancing equanimity and ambition, compassion and resilience. I’ve spent hundreds of hours writing and refining meditations that blend traditional mindfulness practices (like mettā and vipassana) with scientific principles from active inference and modern affirmations (positive psychology). Who Is This For? 🧑‍💻🧑‍🔬 I initially created these meditations to solve my own problem. So, if you’re like me—a founder or entrepreneur who has had a consistent meditation practice for a few months or years and want to add more “drive” into your practice—this practice is perfect for you. However, these meditations are also ideal for anyone who works in high-pressure environments that demand creative problem-solving. Whether you’re an executive, a team leader, or navigating the challenges of a fast-paced career, this practice can help you stay grounded, focused, and resilient while still driving forward. How It Works 🔍 There are two “types” of guided meditation sessions: 1. Founder Series: Handcrafted guided meditation sessions. 2. FM AI Sessions (pronounced “fem-ai”): Create custom meditations tailored to your goals and needs. Just tell FM-AI how you feel or how you want to feel and get a custom meditation for your situation. It’s simple: Make meditation a daily habit and pick one of the above (or both!) sessions each day. Is there a discount for Product Hunt users? Of course!
