This is your permission slip to go big or go nowhere. In this bold, hilarious, and slightly unhinged episode, Jay and Dan unpack the moments in life and business that demanded big, scary leaps and how those moments changed everything.

From maxing out credit cards to launching sold-out events with no plan (hello, Gary V), they reveal the chaos behind their biggest wins, and why fear is usually the sign you're heading in the right direction.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to do the damn thing… this is it.

WHAT’S INSIDE:

  • The ridiculous origin stories behind Jay and Dan’s biggest career leaps
  • The “safety net of fuck it” and why it’s where true freedom begins
  • Why most people don’t aim high enough and what happens when you finally do
  • Dan’s wild ride: from unknown gym owner to a steak dinner with the marketing elite
  • The bamboo theory: why your big break takes years and then happens overnight
  • How to gamify fear and rewire your brain to enjoy risk
  • Practical examples of bold moves in fitness, business, and life that actually paid off
  • Why rejection is just research and why no one’s watching anyway

QUOTES TO REMEMBER:

“Shoot for the moon. If you miss… the moon is 3,475 km wide. You could not have fucked it up more.”

“The worst thing that happens is you fail. The best? Your entire life changes.”

TAKEAWAYS THAT SLAP:

  • Aim 10x higher than you’re comfortable with. Worst case? You hit 5x your original goal.
  • Big leaps don’t feel good. They feel like panic, fear, and holy-shit-what-am-I-doing. That’s normal.
  • Don’t wait for certainty. Move with chaos and let confidence catch up.
  • Play the game of pitching. You’ll be amazed at who says yes when you finally ask.
