What is a glow up - you might ask?

A "glow up" is defined as "a positive transformation, often involving significant changes in appearance, confidence, or lifestyle. 


We use "Glow up" to refer to the process of becoming a better version of oneself, more attractive, and more successful.

Mental health shapes how a founder builds, decides, and leads, and most of us only talk about it when something has gone wrong. This special episode of The Tech Glow Up is a peek at what I'm up to while the show is on its season break: emceeing the first annual World Mental Health Day gathering in Portland, Oregon, hosted by Joyely at the Upstart Collective. My own experience is the starting point. Paying attention to my body and my mental health, and to how the two support the work I'm tryin...
This is a special episode of The Tech Glow Up from SPECS launch day. I'm at the Beverly Wilshire for the SPECS smart glasses media preview, sharing first thoughts on the day of the public launch — September 16th. I want to be upfront: I haven't tried every demo. This is about 30 minutes in the glasses from media day, not the full reveal. But the thing that stood out most was something that was missing. There's no hard line between the display and the world. The screen feels blended with...
This first international episode of The Tech Glow Up was recorded live in Harajuku, Japan at the offices of Mawari — a company building the streaming infrastructure for the next generation of smart glasses and immersive experiences since 2017. Luis Oscar Ramírez is the co-founder and CEO. He started Mawari in Shibuya with a straightforward premise: if the world is three-dimensional, the internet shouldn't be flat. Nine years later, the company is one of the select few in XR that has earned mo...
Episode one started with a hypothesis: innovation is hard, and you shouldn't have to do it alone. 101 episodes later — recorded in under two years — that's still the most consistently true thing on this show. This is a solo episode where I'm marking The Tech Glow Up's milestone and sharing what 100-plus conversations with founders, CEOs, and product leaders have actually taught me. The patterns are real: the innovators who make it through the barren middle — that stretch where insights come s...
XR is the most fragmented technology ecosystem since the early internet — and Sean Mann, CEO of RP1, thinks the industry is making the same mistake AOL did. Get a front row seat to the conversations about AI, AR smartglasses, and the future of enterprise technology from Augmented World Expo 2026. Everyone is building walled gardens. Devices don't talk to each other. Enterprises can't build things that will work everywhere. And every developer who invests in one platform risks watching t...
