Early life
Warren is from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He studied literature at McGill University in Montreal, where he suffered a traumatic injury after falling 30 feet out of a tree, breaking his neck.

He went on to work as a producer at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's (CBC Radio) current-affairs radio show, The Current,[5]
He wrote The Head Trip: Adventures on the Wheel of Consciousness[6] and co-authored Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics.[7]
He collaborated with Calm (company) to create a beginner-friendly meditation series (How to Meditate) and daily meditation sessions (The Daily Trip).[8]
He is married to Canadian journalist Sarah Barmak.[9]
