In Part 2 of our conversation with Graham and Cata, we go deeper into what it really takes to live full-time on the water.

From navigating the realities of boat repairs, tight quarters, and unpredictable seas to the freedom and connection they’ve found in this slower, intentional lifestyle, Graham and Cata share more of the heart behind their decision to leave land behind.

If you’ve ever dreamed of starting over or doing life differently, this episode will encourage you to trust the unknown and chase what truly matters.

🎧 Catch up on Part 1 first if you haven’t already!

What happens when an Aussie and a Colombian—both fueled by a shared passion for adventure and a desire to live more simply—fall in love and buy a sailboat? You get Graham and Cata, a couple who traded convention for curiosity and are now charting a new course together at sea.

In this two-part interview, we chat with Graham and Cata—an adventurous couple who swapped the comforts of land life for the unpredictability and freedom of the open sea. Now living full-time aboard their Island Packet 420 sailboat in Southern California, they’re navigating a lifestyle that’s anything but ordinary.

Known for saying yes to bold experiences, Graham and Cata prove that you don’t need a sailing background to chase something extraordinary. From learning the ropes (literally) to embracing the highs and lows of boat life, their story is a fun, honest, and inspiring look at what it means to rewrite the rules.

Whether you're craving simplicity, adventure, or just love a good leap-of-faith story—this one’s for you.

We’re back with Part Two of Bridget’s cross-country roadtrip, and the stories just keep rolling in! In this episode of The Grind Unsubscribed, Eric gets the latest update on how Alice the adventure pup is doing on the road, what Bridget meal prepped before the trip, and how many sunflower seeds she’s actually eaten since leaving Kentucky (turns out, not asmany as you’d think). 🌻

Things get real-time interesting when a neighbor pulls intoBridget’s tight campsite with a large rental camper. Bridget’s got front-row commentary on whether they can actually back it in—and it’s as tense as it is entertaining.

Meanwhile, Eric mysteriously vanishes off cameramid-conversation, leaving Bridget to wonder... did he wander off to the bathroom? 🤔

It’s a laid-back, late-night episode where the snacks comeout, the guard comes down, and Bridget surprises Eric with a truly one-of-a-kind trail gift from Big Bend National Park.

Bridget also shares the highs, lows, and heat of hiking BigBend, a close wildlife encounter at the campground, the excitement (and surprise!) of a SpaceX rocket launch, and her daughter Kierra’s introduction to dispersed camping. Plus, there’s a sketchy Walmart stop and an unforgettable sandstorm at White Sands National Park.

As you head into the weekend, enjoy a brand-new episode of The Grind Unsubscribed! This is part one of a two-part recording as Bridget finally hits the road with her oldest daughter, Kierra. After crossing the country, the duo has made it to sunny California—but not without collecting some stories along the way.

We kick things off with an honest (and hilarious) check-in on Bridget’s shower count since leaving home—spoiler: the number is low, the excuses are many, and the vibe is very van life.

Kierra shares her first truck stop shower adventure, and we get the lowdown on unexpected highlights of the journey so far, including a wild Texas dust storm and a surprise zebra sighting.

It’s gritty, funny, and full of that on-the-road magic. Buckle up—this is just the beginning.

In this episode of The Grind Unsubscribed, we take the show on the (virtual) road as we test out our remote podcasting setup ahead of Bridget’s upcoming travels. We drop the first hints about exciting interviews on the horizon and revisit the ever-mysterious boat show saga—will Bridget get the invite or remain docked on the sidelines?

Meanwhile, Eric gets unexpectedly introspective as he shares what draws him to the sailing community and how he might be able to dip his toes into the lifestyle he hopes to fully embrace one day. With Bridget flipping the script and asking the questions, Eric finds himself in the hot seat—and loving it.

It’s a lighthearted, behind-the-scenes look at chasing freedom, building community, and figuring it out as we go.

Four episodes in and we’re reflecting on what this whole podcasting thing is teaching us — spoiler: it’s not just about hitting record. We also spill the details on a brand-new van (thanks, Burning Man rabbit hole), and Bridget shares about her upcoming cross-country trek from Kentucky to California.

It’s part reflection, part travel planning, and fully us — figuring it out one detour at a time.

Episode 3, it's kind of like Episode 2's unfiltered cousin.

We thought we wrapped the convo last week, but clearly, we weren’t done talking (are we ever?). So, consider this a bonus round — a continuation, an extension, a little behind-the-scenes brain spiral that just kept rolling.

If you liked where we were headed in Episode 2, you’re gonna want to ride this one out with us. Spoiler: things get even weirder. And funnier. And slightly more chaotic.

Just when we thought we wrapped it up, the conversation kept rolling — and honestly, it was too good not to share. Think of this one as the afterparty to Episode 2: the side tangents, the extra laughs, and the stuff we probably should’ve cut... but didn’t.

One cohost is back on the hustle... which is ironic, considering they once dreamed up a podcast called The Grind Unsubscribed. We unpack that full-circle moment, toss around plans for a sailing trip, and somehow end up plotting a potential pilgrimage to Burning Man. Expect spontaneous detours, life musings, and just enough chaos to keep things interesting.
