Cake Bites with Andrew Horn

Welcome to Cake Bites, where we go rapid-fire with this week's rule breaker—fast questions, real answers, zero corporate polish. Let's learn more about ‪@AndrewHorn‬, serial founder, expert facilitator, and creator of the Holy Shit We're Alive movement, and explore his philosophy of thriving through radical self-expression, conscious emotional regulation, and the power of building deeply connected communities. Andrew’s approach to life—through understanding that exceptional leadership begins with honoring intrinsic curiosity and personal truth rather than external validation, embracing intentional relationship rituals and mindfulness practices to transcend the drama triangle while maintaining grounded presence during setbacks rather than projecting fear into the future, and reconnecting with his guiding principle that being alive is an extraordinary gift when facing complex founder transitions—reveals how intentional practices of emotional honesty and deep connection build lasting impact and drive meaningful results in business and life. His journey flows from growing up in Hawaii feeling disconnected to founding an Inc500 company impacting millions of users, facilitating transformational executive retreats, and coaching elite CEOs, which taught him the importance of living the unresolved questions and how nervous system regulation creates sustainable leadership.
