In this episode of Leave Your Mark, we sit down with Scott Simons—professional speaker, wellness strategist, and mindset coach—whose work helps leaders and teams build clarity, resilience, and sustainable performance in a world that rarely slows down.
Over the past two decades, Scott has delivered more than 300 talks, partnered with over 350 organizations, and inspired thousands to take ownership of their health, leadership, and well-being. His work is grounded in a simple but powerful belief: well-being is not a luxury—it is a leadership strategy.
Scott is the cofounder of four social impact ventures, including the DESTA Black Community Network, Padua Wellness Centre, Organik Corporate Health, and the Be Human Club. Across all of them runs a consistent thread—human-centred leadership informed by behavioural science, performance psychology, and real-world application.
What Scott shares in this conversation goes well beyond frameworks and theory. His insights are shaped by lived experience, including personal struggles with mental health, addiction, and the ongoing work of purpose-driven entrepreneurship. The daily practices he teaches are the same ones that keep him grounded, clear, and resilient.
This is a thoughtful, honest conversation about leadership, ownership, and what it actually takes to thrive—personally and professionally—over the long game.
