A space where you say what you’re really thinking. The lifestyle blog and podcast by Lauren Caleb. How to manage all of the things in a distracting world - current happenings, wellness, beauty, family, home and more. Laugh and learn something too.
On this episode of The Book of Caleb, we’re spiraling in style—because what do sleep-deprived cravings, 9-drink voicemails, Birkenstock dilemmas, and targeted ads all have in common? Chaos. From the science of why you're hungrier (and dumber) when tired, to the art of ordering coffee without causing a scene, we’re breaking it all down with unsolicited opinions and slightly questionable logic. Oh, and yes… we’re finally talking about that weighted vest trend.
🎧 Press play if you’ve ever eaten a muffin just because you didn’t get enough REM sleep.

101: BONUS Story - I "Upgraded" to ChatGPT Plus & It Was A Disaster
What was supposed to be a time-saving upgrade turned into a 15-hour rabbit hole of frustration. In this episode, I share my experience trying to use ChatGPT Pro for a creative project — and how it quickly spiraled into one of the most bizarre and unproductive tech experiments I’ve ever had. From confusing conversations to completely missed expectations, this is a candid look at when AI goes off the rails and why sometimes, “upgrading” isn’t worth it.
Perfect for anyone curious about AI tools, frustrated with overhyped tech, or just here for a good story.
