Jeremy Horne believes it’s time to turn technology into a bridge, not a barrier, to help families reconnect through the power of storytelling.
Jeremy is the founder and CEO of Winny, part of the Human Connection Company. He shares how technology can help us feel more human. Inspired by the VHS interviews he recorded with his grandparents as a child, Jeremy created Winny—an app designed to preserve family stories and strengthen meaningful connections.
The conversation explores the importance of social health alongside physical and mental well-being, the beauty of analog experiences in a digital world, and how technology can nurture empathy instead of distraction.
From his caravan travels across Australia with his family to running without headphones to reconnect with nature, Jeremy’s message is simple but powerful: connection is what keeps us grounded.
3 Takeaways:
(1) Social health matters. Genuine connection and shared stories are vital to our well-being—just as much as physical or mental health.
(2) Preserve stories before they fade. Recording loved ones’ memories builds a legacy of gratitude and belonging for future generations.
(3) Technology can amplify humanity. With intention, tools like Winnie help us connect more deeply—not just scroll endlessly.
Pause your scrolling today. Call or visit someone you care about and ask about a favorite memory—or record it if they’re open to it.
