#170 - Building Community, Resilience, and a 37-Degree Morning Routine with Aryan Davani
Description
On this episode of the Morning Upgrade podcast, Ryan Cote sits down with Aryan Davani, founder of IcePass. Aryan once sold smart-city tech, but burnout and a rough breakup pushed him to try cold-water therapy. That experiment turned into a growing chain of wellness clubs that mix cold plunges, saunas, and breath-work sessions in Los Angeles, with Austin and Miami on the horizon. Aryan explains how contrast therapy can cut inflammation and spike dopamine by 250 percent, then walks us through his own morning routine of fifteen minutes of Wim Hof breathing followed by a three-minute plunge at 37 °F. You’ll hear about community-building events like cold-plunge speed dating, why a simple cold shower is a perfect first step, and practical tips to feel more energized and resilient every day.
