Daily Boost  - Clarity for Life and Work podcast

Daily Boost - Clarity for Life and Work

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.
