Sharing a throwback video from March 2021, where I interviewed Brian Gilan Senior Product Manager at Oura Ring about all things Oura Ring (a sleep and performance wearable technology).  

Oura is a key piece of tech we teach you how to get the most from as part of iAMconnected’s 6WC. Oura is one of many wearable tech devices we integrate with the iAMconnected platform.
