In interviewing Eugenia in The Predictive World Series, a leading AI channel featuring AI leaders making a difference. I was struck by her answer to what has been her passion to pursue her dream and stay resolute and she eloquently said, if I can make a difference to one life at a time so they are happier, then I have made a valuable contribution.

“Spiritual healing and growth are at the forefront of Tomo; we want to re-awaken the spirituality at the core of the human experience, no matter what that means to each person, says, Eugenia Kuyda, Chief Executive Officer and Founder at Replika. “While technology is frequently blamed for a lack of spiritual and wellness development, we believe it offers unlimited potential for growth. No longer are you twitching to reach for your phone in a meditation session, instead, it’s delivering the experience that, hopefully, dulls that urge.”

Tomo is a very innovative application, with focused programs to help subscribers to improve sleep, boost self-image, better understand work-life balance, improve motivation, happiness and more. Tomo brings together invaluable wellness tools in a single Zen space. Taking digital breaks is encouraged, with dialogue recaps and supplementary activities helping you get back on track to improve your employee happiness.
