Uncool by Aggie and Jacob

Uncool Episode 08: From Travel Blogger to CEO

From backpacking the world to running a multi-million-dollar wellness biz. 🌎💼 In Episode 8, Aggie Lal spills on landing in the US with zero cash, making it work anyway, and going from travel influencer to full-blown biohacking boss. Now she’s the brains behind Biohacking Bestie's cycle syncing Supplements and App, a best-selling author, and basically your go-to for syncing your workouts, food, and mindset with your cycle.  It’s the story, the hustle, and the chaos behind the brand. 💫🎙

Uncool Episode 7: Behind the Lens — Jacob Riglin

He built a dream life behind the lens — world-class travel photographer, founder of Jacob Media, millions of eyes on his every post. So… why didn’t it feel like enough? In this episode, we crack open what it’s like to have insane reach, total freedom — and still wrestle with not feeling good enough. Jacob talks about going from shooting epic landscapes to proving he’s a “serious” business guy (ugh), the identity spiral that comes with being online 24/7, and what he’s learning as he preps for the biggest role yet: fatherhood. We also ask some spicy questions: Are you cool? Are you trying to be cool? Are you trying to prove you’re not who you used to be? And why do so many men struggle to show up during pregnancy? Spoiler: It’s less about the answers, more about what it means to stop performing and start showing up — for yourself, your partner, and your future kid.

Uncool Episode 6: F*ck the Patriarchy, But I Still Bow to my Husband

One year into marriage, we’re cracking open the vows, the breakdowns, and the beautiful mess of evolving together. We talk about how we broke up, came back as new people, and what it means to choose your partner again. Why saying the words is easy—but living them is the real work. From Buddhist bowing to questioning tradition (and each other), this episode dives into the paradox of modern love: How do you stay rooted in who you are… while growing alongside someone else?

Uncool Episode 5: Joe Dispenza, Rewiring the Mind & Letting Go of Lack

We went to a Joe Dispenza retreat—and it cracked us open. In this episode, we unpack how your brain becomes a record of the past, why chasing the dream can trap you in lack, and how true change happens through emotion, not effort. Jacob didn’t even want to go 🙃 and somehow, even sitting side by side, we walked away with totally different takeaways. This one’s for anyone trying to rewire their thoughts, shift emotional patterns, or just finally stop looping the same stories.

Uncool Episode 4: From CEO to Mom: The Shift No One Prepares You For

In this episode, we drop into what the first trimester actually feels like: the exhaustion, the mood swings, the mental load, and the wild shift in identity that hits when you’re growing a human. We talk about what no one prepares you for—like how hard it is to ask for help, why “just hire a nanny” isn’t always the answer, and how to rethink support in a way that doesn’t leave women burnt out and alone.  Aggie opens up about the real emotional cost of being in her masculine to keep a business running, and Jacob shares what he’s learning as a partner (and why one meal four weeks ago doesn’t really count as enough). If you’re navigating pregnancy, prepping for it, or supporting someone who is—this episode is for you. It’s honest, unfiltered, and hopefully a reminder that doing it differently isn’t just okay—it’s necessary. Here’s what we get into: (00:00) Why real food isn’t always realistic in trimester one (03:15) Asking for help vs. expecting mind reading (06:00) Conscious support: it’s not “help” if you’re on the same team (08:10) Business vs. baby—rethinking roles without guilt (10:12) The emotional labor behind “doing it all” (13:30) How resentment builds when roles aren’t clear (15:00) Weekly calendars, baby moons, and rethinking planning Thanks for being here.
