About this episode
What if the only thing standing between you and your dream life was TENACITY? In this episode of Resiliency The Podcast , Jenn Quader and Dr. Kelly Culver welcome Scott Scovill : entrepreneur, producer, director, musician, author, and relentless dream chaser.
Scott’s career began with one bold move: talking his way into a roadie opportunity with U2 on the Joshua Tree tour. That moment eventually led to work with legendary artists including the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Whitney Houston, Ozzy Osbourne, Alan Jackson, Brad Paisley, Tim McGraw, and more. He went on to build multiple companies in the Nashville entertainment industry, win a Country Music Award for live show production, release music, and out touring now.
With his new book, Tenacious: The Art of Relentlessly Pursuing Your Wildest Dreams , Scott shares his story is not just about success, but how to overcome.
It is about the mindset behind continuing when fear, failure, grief, trauma, and uncertainty threaten to stop you. Scott discusses how he moved from being paralyzed by fear of failure to building a life defined by courage, creativity, joy, and persistence.
