  • The Problem With Self-Help

    The Problem With Self-Help
    Dec 15 2025
    Self-help used to be simple: read a book, take a walk, call your mom. Now it feels like you need a 28-step morning routine, a cold plunge, 17 supplements, and a $90 notebook just to feel like a functioning human being. Somewhere along the way, “improving your life” turned into a performance. This video is about that shift and why so much of modern self-help leaves us feeling more overwhelmed than transformed. New here? I’m Scott 👋 I walked away from $1.7M in equity to chase my entrepreneurial dreams. Bold or stupid? Still TBD. Now I make videos about mastering your mindset, building better habits, and actually enjoying the process. No fluff, no guru nonsense, just philosophy, psychology, and a few jokes about dodging existential dread. Please subscribe so my wife doesn’t make me go back to a “real” job.

    Dec 1 2025
    We all think an easier life will make us happier. But somewhere along the way, comfort starts working against us. In this video, I explore how “comfort creep” quietly makes life feel harder, why small inconveniences start to break us, and what happens when we finally bring a little friction back into our lives.

    Your Phone Is Ruining Your Memory
    Nov 17 2025
    Every time we’re bored, we reach for it. The glowing rectangle. The endless scroll. But what if our phones aren’t just killing our focus, they’re quietly erasing our memory? In this video, I explore how constant distraction rewires the way we think, why our brains are offloading more than we realize, and what happens when we finally start giving our attention a chance to remember again.

  • Why ‘Finding Yourself’ Might Be the Dumbest Goal You Have

    Why ‘Finding Yourself’ Might Be the Dumbest Goal You Have
    Nov 10 2025
    We talk about “finding ourselves” like our identity is hiding in a couch cushion somewhere. Like if we just travel enough or go on a silent retreat with an $84 ethically-sourced, emotionally-validated journal, the universe will finally reveal who we are. But what if you’re not lost at all? In this video, I share how the search for your “real self” can actually keep you from living and what happens when you stop trying to find yourself and start paying attention to who you’re becoming.

    The Most Overrated Advice You Keep Falling For
    Nov 3 2025
    The internet is overflowing with advice. Wake up earlier. Work harder. Cut out negativity. Manifest faster. But if all this advice actually worked, why are we still searching for more of it? In this video, I explore why so much “life-changing” advice doesn’t work, how it quietly keeps us stuck, and what happens when you finally stop listening to everyone else and start thinking for yourself.

  • The Productivity Trap Nobody Talks About

    The Productivity Trap Nobody Talks About
    Oct 27 2025
    I used to think productivity was the key to freedom. So I optimized everything, my routines, my habits, my workflows. But somewhere between the ice baths, color-coded calendars, and three dashboards tracking my “progress,” I started to wonder… who was I actually doing all this for? In this video, I explore how the pursuit of productivity can quietly become the biggest distraction of all, and what happens when you finally slow down long enough to ask why you’re doing it in the first place.
