"Why is this happen twice to you. So interesting debate. I mentioned that. I am line in nineteen ninety two. She say i was living in. My hometown victoria british columbia. So it's on island off the west coast of morton. America's feels very provincial feels very removed from the rest of society is. It's after nine pm. You can't even get a fairly to go to the mainland and the web hadn't taken off yet but the internet was really had an enormous amount of activity not relative today but so hundreds of thousands of people who are connected and they were using usenet and email and air sea and old program called which was like messaging where you could see each letter as it was typed cooking nerve wracking and very irritating to use. You could see back spacing to fix their bus for someone who grew up feeling at a removed to greater world the idea that you could transcend geography and you could transcend time and you could find. These interests was really just magical. And so from that moment the idea of the use of computing technology to facilitate human traction was just the most interesting practical idea in the world by the philosophical ideas. There were anderson. The first game was called game neverending and came from the realization that you could make dynamic web pages and this was two thousand one and two it was called remote scripting and a friend of mine erica. Solo is one of three or four people who really invented this later became ajax and then single page. Ops it now. It's just like a web age but the tech was so cool. We thought we make again. That's entirely browser and make some really dynamic. And they failed. It probably would have failed anyway because the idea is not especially commercially. Viable was a combat absurd. Surreal monty python meets. Dr seuss. world has a pretty narrow appeal but also failed because it was two thousand twenty when we started. It's a is there dot com prussian than there was worldcom and enron accounting scandals and then there was nine eleven which is the all time worst market conditions. Were sunday tried to raise money for something that was online. So when i feel we created flicker the second failure was very different so we created it was acquired worked out for several years and then we thought okay. Now it's two thousand nine versus two thousand two and there's all of this amazing open software that didn't exist before we've gone from a world where the netherlands was the only country to have greater than fifty percent ministration of internet connections at home to almost country. There's an order or maybe two hundred baggage should more people online. And they had faster connections better. Computers and hardware was cheaper and were more experienced. And like it's just all these 10x factors that led us to believe. It both never possibly fail the sun and we did again in this long story. Maybe the idea wasn't viable. But the the real reason was we went all in on flash as a client technology and kind of content pipeline management technology at a time lord slash was about to die and discretionary computer time shifted from disease to mobile and we had been using going back to nineteen. Ninety-two internet relay chat her. Irc as the backbone of occupations but because irc is the one thousand nine hundred nine era protocol. It didn't have really basic things that people associate with messaging services so it didn't have the ability to store and forward messages so you and i got online at the same time. I just couldn't send your message would meet you and so we built a to log all the messages people said and so you could catch up again. You can a online and just incrementally over the course of many years. We made these improvements that were based on something gene so exasperated that we couldn't stand it anymore or something being such an obvious opportunity. That could help it. Take advantage of it. We have ninety percent cal henderson. Co founder cto. Once we had the messages log database won't be able to search the and once you realize it. Everyone's attention was focused or aggregated. Here we started doing things like database alerts flow into the channels or when you uploaded a file to the file server. That would be announced that the bureau you didn't have to tell people and the daily stats runs reposted into channels to be pre slack and then when we decided to shut the game we realized that we would never work again it so probably other people that i could do although when he said other people at that point thought other person software development teams. Here's thing all four of those games. Looker and clock are kind of at their essence. The same. it's all these computer technology to eliminate two minutes so you have a massively multiplayer game that didn't work and massively multiplayer photo. Sharing the did work. Because i was what separates liquor from from other things. It was put a photo on make it public and other people comment you can tag it other detect voters and they would show together you create groups and then massively multiplayer game the failed and then massively multi player workplace offer but there is a real common thread different and the work context that it is in play context but there is the establishment let's identity and participation or direction and the gradual accretion of the residue of those interactions that increases in value time. So i just like making software that connects you specific set of challenges there and the context is less important for me than the fact that that's what it's for that that's excluding google almost hall of the value of the consumer internet and destroying is different ways of facilitating direction with other people. And all these he takes advantage of those interactions and discreet human actions to build the index and provide search. It's really big and grateful that slackers when it was successful because it is such a deep an interesting problem a thread. That very common drew elvis even if the nearest different. So it's a fascinating idea that most values just finding ways to help people communicate with each other. How much white space do you think is still there. I think even when slack started your pulled an audience like saying do we need more communication tools and maybe if you pull them today everyone would say no. Like there's forty different ways that i communicate with other people in every medium voice video tax slack whatsapp. There's a million places so it seems like settled ground. Do you think that that's true or that. We as people will just continue to find interesting innovative new ways to communicate with each other a little bit of both in support and understand why ethics lack works. Or why it's been successful and it's not because it's a better way to enter text into a box and kit enter descended or or to read other people's sensible be obviously focus on the design but chemist messaging is just very different than individual messaging so slack is adjudicated by that puts the team where the organization i as opposed to putting the individual. I saw an email. I have a unique inbox. That is different from everyone else's as does everyone else and the difficulty of that. I mentioned first day on the job. You have a completely empty boxes by that. There's all these messages that already existed but the other problem is pay. Just don't see things the same way you do. And unless i manually select males to forward them to you you'll just forever miss this context whereas you can join a channel six months after i started and it didn't matter that you weren't there the history was being created in an index. And you can catch up on it so if you end up a situation where there's a channel for everything that the organization is paying attention to so recipes. Every.

How Are we Going to Solve the Behavioral Health Crisis with Lisa Henderson
"Welcome back to the outcomes. Rocket saw Marquez's here and that I had the privilege of hosting Lisa Henderson. She is the CO founder and Chief Operating Officer at synchronous health. Her previous experience includes experience as an adjunct faculty at the Vanderbilt Cup. Periodic College chair the Southern Region at the American Counseling Association and also pass President Tennessee Counseling Association among other leadership roles. Her focus has always been on health and also mental health of communities and individuals, and with her work at synchronous health, the impact that they're making at a broader scale in. In Times of great need is just extraordinary, so I'm I'm excited to to dive into the conversation with Lisa and in the work that she and her team are are up to, but before that Lisa at one welcome you to the gas much for having me absolutely, it's a true pleasure, so you know before we dive into what you guys do. At synchronous health I want to understand better. What inspires your work in healthcare sir? So I started my career when I was planning my career and I was in Undergrad. In went straight into Grad school after that I actually got a masters in health education promotion, and so it was really focused on helping people live healthier lives and part of that research experience in that masters program was to be a health coach when police officers. It was really fine. had some great sessions where you know, I would have to kind of barter with them. So if I wanted the person who was leading the SWAT team, his stress levels were incredibly high humans and sleeping well and so I wanted him to do yoga in order for him to agree to do Yoga I had to meet him at the shooting range and. Learn how to shoot a pissed off, so you know being able to kind of meet people where they are and help them learn. New Skills was really fun, but the same time. It was so clear to me that. Those officers were living with so much more than just obesity and trouble sleeping. They were living with anxiety and depression and worry and guilt and. All the things that humans experience and it was just kind of sitting there and my training as a health coach really didn't give me the tools to address those things so I went back to school, and got a masters in counseling, so that I could get into those deeper sorts of issues with folks, and it's been just so rewarding percents to be able to kind of take both sides of health What are you doing on the behavioral side? In terms of lifestyle choices and out. Adherent to your treatment plans in taking your medication and things like that, but also why in what? What is the underlying factor of? Depression or anxiety or family conflict? Are you know other things going on that lead to the decisions that affect your health? Yeah so cool, so you got this this masters in public health education and you said this doesn't really do it i. want to dig deeper help. These people more their stressed. There's there's a lot here and you went to go. Get Your Masters and mental health, and it unlocked a lot of things and you know I. It looks and sounds like you did the right thing lease I mean now you're you're you're part of this this really unique company addressing a lot of these issues at scale. Tell me about how it happened and and folks Leeson. We're having some fun connecting before the podcast that I shared my story with their vow had a couple offers the people wanting to buy outcomes rocket before it was, it was it was a business profitable business and the pressures that I got at home, saying no to those offers. Lisa I. WanNa Hear Your Story. We were saving it here for for us to share it with the listeners to tell me how synchronous help happened and and what exactly you guys are doing. The add value to the healthcare ecosystem sure. So similar to your experience, so one of my co are three of us. Co Founders of synchronised Health Katie, Moore. Guy Barnard, Myself Katie and I are both mental health. Clinicians report together for about ten years and several years ago, we started a treatment center and the first sort of level of programming that we provided as. Intensive outpatient, so we had people with us in our services in our program for nine hours a week and we would have them for. One to four months, and even folks who had been with us for nine hours a week would still come in and say I forgot or I was too stressed or I was triggered to use the skills that we're learning while we're here and then have them show up when I meet them in real life, and so we were thinking okay. They don't need clinical criteria for a higher level of care. We're. We're not seeing the improvement that we WANNA see. We could keep doing more of the everything we were doing. Was Evidence based and supported by research? So it's not like you know what we were doing was in any way deficient. It just wasn't heading them at the right time and place when they really needed it,
