Travis and producer Eric dig into a surprisingly relatable mix of topics: changing friendships, unexpected stress in adulthood, and yes, bringing earplugs to the movie theater without feeling like a complete boomer. Through humor and a little friendly roasting, they unpack what no one really warns you about when it comes to growing up, building a business, and trying to stay healthy in the process.​

On this episode we talk about:

Why Eric is (apparently) the first Gen Z moviegoer planning to wear earplugs to every screening.​

How relationships—friends, collaborators, even co‑workers—naturally change over time as your life, geography, and goals evolve.​

The difference between avoiding stress and choosing the right kind of stress for the life you actually want.​

Why time management becomes one of the hardest—and most important—skills of adult life.​

How to intentionally keep connections alive with simple habits like periodic check‑in texts and DMs.​

Top 3 Takeaways

Stress is inevitable—so pick your stress. Whether it’s building a business, raising kids, or staying “comfortable” and broke, every path has stress. The goal is not to escape it, but to choose the stress that leads to the life you want.​

Relationships will change, and that’s normal. Friends move, priorities shift, careers evolve—so build simple rhythms (messages, calls, shared workouts, trips) to keep the right people close on purpose.​

Self‑care isn’t soft; it’s strategic. From sleep to hearing protection to workouts, protecting your body and mind is what allows you to keep showing up for your goals long‑term.​

Notable Quotes

“You’re not going to avoid stress—if you want anything above average, stress is part of the deal.”​

“Most of the stress in my life is stress I welcomed because I wanted the challenge.”​
