Zach Schleien: Why is swiping on dating apps bad for your mental health?


Today we have with us Zach Schleien, Co-founder of Filter Off. Zach has a passion for helping others achieve their goals in the personal branding and mental health space. His journey has been one of successes and failures. He has learned from working on his own side projects as well as working in a corporate setting, now at Johnson & Johnson. This unique mix of experience has given Zach the confidence to help others who are just starting out or looking to bring their business to the next level.

In episode #156 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Zach chose Syracuse University, what made Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity at Syracuse special, what he learned as Founder of Top Romp in 2014 and then later selling the company in 2018, what made him want to build 18percent (a free mental health online community), how COVID-19 impacted online dating, what makes Filter Off different from all the other online dating apps, what is the future of online dating, why swiping on dating apps is bad for your mental health, the challenges in building a startup, and how to balance life through all of it. Enjoy!
