Listen "61. Scott Britton: Conscious Accomplishment - How to Use Personal Achievement for Spiritual Growth"
Episode Synopsis
After climbing the “success mountain” of Princeton, Forbes 30 Under 30, a successful exit to SalesForce, Scott found himself cracked open by a spiritual awakening that forced him to build a bridge between rapid inner growth and a life of high achievement. Today, that bridge looks like writing, a vibrant online community, and honest conversations about integrating self-realization with contribution, prosperity, and adventure.
Scott is a pioneer at the intersection of modern entrepreneurship and spiritual transformation. He’s spent the past six years living out the question: How do you pursue the expansion of consciousness while deeply thriving in the modern world?
The result is his new book Conscious Accomplishment, which is coincidentally launching today (10/8).
Why does this matter to me? Because, like Scott, I know what it’s like to “win” and get the thing we told ourself we wanted, only to discover something’s still missing. We talk openly about that search.
I’ve sat with Scott in men’s retreats where the work was messy, real and that’s what I appreciate most about him: Scott’s not trying to look enlightened. He’s practicing in public. He’s using everyday life as the ground for his awakening, and inviting others to do the same.
You’ll hear us dig into the myth that spiritual depth and worldly impact are at odds. Scott’s entire project, his book, his podcast, his Substack, is a living refutation of that. As he says, “As you uplift yourself, you become better resourced to uplift others.” That’s not just a line. It’s his truth and he’s sharing it beautifully.
