What if you could bring the beach into your everyday life?

This idea is simple… and a little ridiculous: a $50 box of sand you keep under your desk so you can stick your feet in it while you work.

But when you zoom out, it taps into something real.

People love the beach—not just the place, but the feeling. Relaxation, escape, sunlight, being off the clock. And every year, people spend thousands of dollars chasing that feeling on vacation.

In this episode, I break down the Beachday concept—starting with this simple product—and why it might actually resonate with more people than you’d expect.

We get into:

• The psychology behind why people are drawn to the beach
• Why a small, funny product like this could work
• How I’d test it quickly without overthinking
• And how it could be the starting point for something much bigger

It’s simple. It’s slightly ridiculous. But there might be something here.
