The Daily Boost is a short, practical podcast for people who want their life and work to work better.
I’m Scott Smith. For years, people have come to me with the same request:
“Help me fix a few things and move forward.”
That’s what the Daily Boost is designed for.
Each episode is just a few minutes long. One idea you can use. One shift in perspective that helps you make better decisions, handle pressure more cleanly, and feel like you’re moving in the right direction again.
No hype.
No long theories.
Just useful insight you can carry into your day.
Most people who listen are building careers, businesses, or leadership roles. They’ve done a lot right — they just don’t want progress to come at the expense of everything else.
Along with the short daily episodes, I also share longer weekly Deep Dives. That’s where we go further — connecting the dots between the changes you’re trying to make today and the bigger picture of where your life and work are heading.
The Daily Boost is the starting point.
It helps you fix what’s in front of you — and opens the door to building something that actually lasts.
If you’re looking for clarity, traction, and a better way forward, you’re in the right place.

The holidays slow everything down, don't they?
But next year's coming fast. I'm sharing the simple rule I use every single day with my clients. It's the one that cuts through the chaos and gets you focused on what actually moves your life forward.
You've got goals and dreams. The world's going to try sucking the motivation right out of you. Time to figure out what works for you, what doesn't, and just do that. Simple as that.
Featured Story
My daughter called me out last night. Said my voice sounded raspy from too many holiday parties.
Then she offered to teach me to sing. Me. The guy who won't even touch karaoke.
Next thing I know, she's buying me a vocal training program and planning to come over. I've always had this weird goal to learn, but I've never been willing. Now I'm probably doing it because sometimes the craziest goals are the ones worth going after.
This whole thing sparked a question on my coaching call today that blew everyone's mind. Nobody had an answer. That question tomorrow might do the same for you.
Important Points
Motivation feels like injecting dopamine, but it doesn't last when chaos rules your life.
Transformation only comes after stability—your nervous system can't handle change when you're scattered.
Your regrets reveal your real values—track what you wish you hadn't done to find what matters most.
Memorable Quotes
"You can't have transformation without stability."
"This works, that doesn't, do this."
"What you really want to do in your life usually shows up in your regrets, in the things you wish you hadn't done."
Scott's Three-Step Approach
Notice what actually works for you and take responsibility for doing more of it.
Write down your biggest distractions and build discipline to eliminate them completely.
Use your regrets as a map—inverse them to discover your real values and priorities.
