The Limitless Podcast with Nick Jonsson · 2026-06-25 · 22 min
In this episode of Limitless, I sit down with Tane Hunter, CEO and cofounder of Future Crunch, coauthor of Full Stack Human, and a voice I deeply respect on science, technology, adaptability, and what it means to stay human in a world moving faster than ever. What stayed with me most was not only his thinking around AI, attention, or the future of work. It was the personal story behind it. Before becoming a cancer researcher, data scientist, science communicator, and futurist, Tane was a professional mountain biker and former US champion. That identity disappeared almost overnight after a serious back injury ended his athletic career. What followed was pain, depression, and the difficult realization that when your whole life is built around performance, losing the thing you perform through can feel like losing yourself. His line, “Your body doesn’t send you memos, it sends you invoices,” captures the heart of this conversation. We speak about achievement syndrome, success amnesia, the pressure to chase the next goal, and the danger of ignoring what the body and mind are trying to tell us.
