It's a film that takes a closer look at something that lots of Americans rarely question: the electoral college voting system.If you’ve been listening to The Breakout for a while now, you’ll know that we love guests who question long-held systems or beliefs, and Maximina’s film does just that.

  • How to Do Whatever The Hell You Want: The Breakouts That Inspired the Book
    Oct 9 2024

    The day has finally come! Friends…our book is officially launched! Join us on today’s episode as we celebrate the book, vacillate from excitement to nausea, and look back on the incredible guests on The Breakout who inspired it all.

    One of our amazing guests once said, “all these rules that have been taught to us? They were not bargained for collectively. We did not actually agree to them”. She was actually talking about monogamy, but for us, that sentiment applies universally to every expectation we live by. It’s also a sentiment that serves as the starting point for our book, Whatever the Hell You Want. It’s a book about the unspoken expectations, the “I shoulds” that we live by, and the secret dreams we’ve tried to ignore. But it’s also a guide for seeing those stifling boxes for what they are, pushing back on expectations, making changes and embracing the life you (yes, you) really want.

    We know a thing or two about transformations and we know they're not easy. So we wanted to write a practical guide to help people make the changes they are aching to make. And in this episode we're looking back on some of the truly remarkable guests that have broken out of boxes, blown our minds, and inspired us to write the book everyone needs so they can break out themselves.
