Life by Design Podcast

Stop Living on Autopilot. Start Living by Design.

Most people don’t struggle because they lack talent, drive, or ambition.
They struggle because of what’s happening inside—fear, self-doubt, and invisible beliefs that quietly run their decisions.

The Life by Design Podcast is about breaking those internal limits.

This isn’t surface-level motivation or recycled advice.
It’s real conversations, real stories, and real mindset shifts that help you take ownership of your life, your money, and your future.

What This Podcast Is About

Each episode dives into the inner work that creates outer results.

We talk about:

• Fear, self-doubt, and imposter syndrome

• Money stories and scarcity thinking

• Confidence, identity, and self-belief

• Breaking old patterns and designing new ones

• Living intentionally instead of by default

Because real transformation doesn’t start with tactics.
It starts with who you believe you are.

About the Host

I’m Steve Ek—entrepreneur, mentor, and someone who spent years “doing well” on the outside while quietly struggling on the inside.

I went from working for $3.25 an hour to building multi-million-dollar businesses.
But the biggest breakthroughs in my life didn’t come from money or success.

They came from learning how to overcome fear, rewrite limiting beliefs, and design my life from the inside out.

This podcast is where I share what actually changed everything.

Who This Podcast Is For

• Entrepreneurs and high achievers who feel stuck or unfulfilled

• People who want more out of life but don’t know what’s holding them back

• Anyone ready to stop playing small and start living intentionally

• Those who know there’s more—and are ready to claim it

If you’ve ever felt like you’re capable of more but can’t explain what’s stopping you…
You’re in the right place.

What You’ll Walk Away With

• Clarity around what’s really holding you back

• Language for the invisible struggles you’ve never named

• Practical mindset shifts you can apply immediately

• A new way to think about confidence, money, and freedom

This podcast isn’t about fixing what’s broken.
It’s about upgrading what’s possible.
