Energy for the Reboot: What Gen-X Runs On Now
Remember when breakfast was a cigarette and a cup of gas-station coffee before work? Yeah… same.
But these days the reboot hits different. Gen-X is still grinding, just smarter about what we fuel up with. Between the podcast, work, and keeping our heads clear, we found the stuff that actually keeps the motor running — KIND Bars and Bulletproof Coffee.

The Gen-X Grind Isn’t Slowing Down
We came from the 90s — raised on convenience-store caffeine and music that never apologized. Now we’re parents, builders, and creators trying to balance everything without burning out.
Bulletproof’s MCT-infused brew hits that clean energy line — no crash, no jitters, just focus. Pair that with a KIND Bar in the glove box or your gym bag and you’ve got breakfast that fits between chaos and deadlines.
Real Fuel for Real People
Forget the “influencer” smoothies. Gen-X doesn’t need fancy — we need functional.
KIND = simple ingredients, real protein, actually tastes like food.
Bulletproof = clean fat + caffeine = mental clarity that outlasts a meeting.
Throw one in your backpack, grab one before recording, or stash a box in the shop next to the socket set.
The CommonX Connection
We talk a lot about energy — creative, emotional, physical.
Staying clear and sharp is part of why this show even exists.
This isn’t an ad, it’s survival gear for Gen-X dreamers who refuse to quit.
So next time you’re firing up the mic, heading into the shop, or chasing kids to soccer practice, skip the crash.
Fuel up, dial in, and keep that CommonX engine running clean.
