I’m Alicia Waldner
Founder of Exist Studios
Exist is on a mission to combat the pandemic of loneliness in our hyper-connected social media age, where authenticity is often lost in a sea of fake stories. We create a community where people can be real, share their stories, and connect genuinely.
Our app breaks the stigma of seeking help by positioning itself as your cool-ass best friend, not a therapist. With lingo and vibes of an emotional safety friend, we guide you through fun and unique experiences to work on your mental health. Currently audio-based and soon to be visual on Vision Pro, Exist is here to make mental health care engaging and authentic.
