​Join Jeffrey Chernick and Alix Gitter, co-authors of High Five Energy — now the #1 Amazon New Release for Starting a Business — for High Five Energy Founders — an in-person, interactive experience that's redefining how founders get support.

​This time, the tables turn. Alix steps into the host seat to interview Jeffrey on his journey as a 3x founder: from Wall Street to startups, from 21 US patents to a viral app with over 20 million downloads, to building one of the country's leading commute tech platforms. And now — a book that hit #1.

​Together, we'll explore the mindset shifts and behavioral tools behind the founder flow state.

​Expect:

• ​Live, unfiltered conversation and audience Q&A

• ​Real founder stories and behavioral insights

• ​A creative, high-vibe crowd of builders and believers

• ​Networking, breakfast, and community energy before and after the show

​Come for the advice. Stay for the flow.

​This is the High Five Energy Founders podcast — live and in person.

​Based on the #1 Amazon New Release "High Five Energy: A Different Kind of Founder."
