Scaling Up: Lessons From The World's Best CEOs and Founders · From The Archive: Art Meets Science - Bruce Buchanan, Rokt CEO and Co-Founder · 8 Oct 2025 podcast

And I tend to like to do things I pick an activity depending on the level of stress, depending on what mode I'm in at that particular point in time.

The level of activity will drive the switch off.

So I love playing bridge, for instance, and it's it's a game where my mental mind has to be completely focused on the game of bridge.

So it forces you to switch off.

You know, I like flying planes, I like running.

I do a whole bunch of those sorts of things and they are ways that force me to switch off.

Running is a great exercise for me and hiking I love as well and skiing is a whole bunch of those fitness things because

the exercise uh is a surprising way to actually process problems.

You go for an hour long run and you come back and everything feels like you've solved the world's problems.

Yeah, I think there's something about the subconscious also that kicks in when the body is actually exercising that's super powerful and it has a way of dealing with problems that are in a very different way than if you just sit and stew and stress on something.

Yeah.

Yeah, and you need balance.

Uh the the other thing is, you know, it's great to have a life partner, kids, and other things that create balance.

So like when I go on leave and I go on holiday and we sit on a beach, I s completely switch off.

Um and skill.

And that's a such an important skill because you go at a hundred and twenty percent

And I think we've created as a society a a greater problem in amongst all what we do today, in that I think kids are finding it harder and harder to switch off because this little device called the mobile phone, which we carry around with us now everywhere, has created this instantaneous uh sense of anxiety where people are constantly needing to feel like they check in on something.

And I think

Unfortunately, that's breeding in into our children and our next generation.

I think this inability to switch off.
