The Motivated Mind

Hey, my name is Scott, host of The Motivated Mind, a Spotify Top 100 Health & Fitness podcast with over 7 million downloads. I walked away from $1.7M in equity to chase my entrepreneurial dreams. Bold or stupid? Still TBD. Each week, I share practical ways to master your mindset, build better habits, and actually enjoy the process. No fluff, no guru nonsense, just philosophy, psychology, and a few jokes about dodging existential dread.
