Jenny Bain sits down with Kent Collier not the CEO, not the founder, but the person.
In his most personal conversation yet, Kent opens up about the weight of building Octus, the legacy of his parents, what he’s still learning as a father, and why he hasn’t taken an out-of-office in over a decade. He shares what drives him, what haunts him, and why making music might be the only thing that helps him slow down.
This is the Kent most people don’t get to meet. The man behind the product, the pressure, and the playlist.
