[01:02:53] “The biggest regret people have on their deathbed is the regret of what they did not do. Think about that. Think about how powerful that is as a sentence.” — Scott White
In this episode, Bobby Mascia sits down with Scott White—The Life Is Too Short Guy—to explore how to live with purpose, passion, and perspective.

He also shares his book-writing process, practical tools to break free from mental ruts, and the core principles that guide his mission to help people live more fulfilled lives.
[28:01]“You have a barrel full of gold coins—your minutes. You don’t know how many you have, so be intentional with everyone.” — Scott White
