99% of people are stuck doing something they do not truly care about, chasing a career path that does not maximize their potential. I left my 9-5 job to go all in on this podcast. Now, I have conversations with people who are fearlessly pursuing their passion in the world. On this podcast, we share the stories of people that made bold moves, chose the untraditional path and won. Going all in on yourself and the things you care about can be intimidating. Let's go on this journey together, welcome to The Calum Johnson Show.

Vic Blends is the barber who has cut Barack Obama, Tom Brady and Lil Baby. He started cutting hair in his mom's garage, moved to Atlanta into a basement apartment full of roaches, and gained 5 million followers in 5 days giving strangers free haircuts. In this episode, Vic reveals the one video that blew up his following, how he got Barack Obama in his barber chair, and why 10K followers can be worth more than millions. He also opens up about the 72 hours without sleep that led to a manic episode and made him lose everything.
