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.

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.
