Bridget, thank you so much for coming on and having this conversation with me, and for approving my insane title and thumbnail idea lol. I find your journey and the way you've embraced it truly inspiring. This conversation made me think a lot. Thank you for having it with me. I wish you well on your continued sobriety. Now I'm off to go smoke a hand-rolled clove cigarette.

Luuuuuuuc thank you for coming on and having this convo with me. Love you buddy. FYI, the comments are likely going to be a bit unhinged as the Caleb hate mob continues to flog my videos with their wonderful Mensa-level insights, but you know what? I've never been one to Go Gently Into That Good Night. I will go into the good night kicking, screaming, and doing bits until the day I die. And hopefully when I do, they'll write something cool and punchy on my gravestone. Bro, please make sure whatever goes on my gravestone is tight and punchy (assuming you outlive me.)

Genuinely thanks for coming on man lol it was fantastic to reconnect. I'm jealous of your daughter, she's gonna be such a cool nerd. Can't wait to hear y'all's Soundcloud drops in a decade from now.

In this episode of Brain Juice, Josh Terry breaks down how letting go of “big goals” and focusing on small, aligned actions can compound into unstoppable momentum. We get into Rubber Band Theory, Useful Delusion, the Pressure vs. Vacuum Framework, and why alignment beats forcing hustle, plus the raw stories of how Josh laid on the floor for 8 hours before his first CTA, used AI for mindset, and built a life he actually enjoys.

If you’re a creator, founder, or ambitious weirdo trying to build something that matters without burning out, this conversation will rewire how you think about growth.
