Most people need a job to survive—but what if that same job is quietly stealing your health? Greg realized his tech career was keeping him in a chair 60+ hours a week, so he committed to moving at least one mile outside every single day, no matter the weather. Nearly 1,700 days later, he's not only healthier but clearer on what actually matters—and he's living out of a van on his own terms. Greg, the founder of Outside 365, shares how a simple daily practice transformed his relationship with work, money, and well-being. The conversation covers the fragility of job security (especially in tech), why "FU money" matters when layoffs hit, and how remote work unlocked a nomadic lifestyle he never planned for. Brad and Greg also dig into the mental health payoff of nature exposure, the practicality of starting with just one mile, and why progress beats perfection when building new habits.
