Be With A Woman Who Inspires You – MTP511

  1. Be With A Woman Who Inspires You - MTP511 Scot McKay 35:25

Co-Host Brandon Wade (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/seeking) My first time guest Brandon Wade s the founder and co-CEO of Seeking.com, a Dating platform he founded in 2006 after his own frustrations with modern dating and difficulty finding meaningful connection. For nearly 20 years, he has helped build and evolve Seeking around a core idea that now feels more relevant than ever: successful Relationships start with honesty, intentionality and aligned expectations. And importantly, if the person you’re with isn’t inspiring you, that’s a major red flag, if not a flat-out dealbreaker. Brandon freely admits that seeking.com started out as a “sugar baby” site, and that description is still somewhat accurate even nowadays. But here’s the thing…despite everything I’ve ever warned you about regarding the whole “sugar daddy” thing, Brandon found the Love of his life on his own site, despite his own take that the entire “dating industry” is rigged against successful people! After once cynically (and publicly) questioning love itself, he ultimately met his wife and co-CEO Dana on Seeking, an experience that helped shape the company’s current focus on authenticity, trust and intentional dating. This was after using his own site for considerable practice improving his skills with women. So yes, his perspective is not only rooted in operating a dating platform at scale, but in his own lived experience. This wide-ranging discussion covers the rising standards among women, the low-effort dating crisis, male loneliness, and why many men are struggling to adapt to a dating culture that increasingly rewards emotional maturity, Clarity and effort.

Scot McKay Dating Strategist

Scot McKay has shared bad jokes with North Korean military officers, sipped coffee at Pablo Escobar’s home (served by his maid), survived a shark attack while surfing, held his breath as the pride of lions walked by his tent, and blitzed through California canyons with his knee on the double-yellow line at 140 mph. Yet somehow, he has also been referred to as the “sane one” on Twitter by Scott Adams, of all people.

But despite once being mobbed by the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, being able to back a 30′ travel trailer into its slot on the first try, and that time he beat the World Champion at his own sport (no details provided), he’s still the most objective and down-to-earth dating expert out there.

He’s also the most fluff-free fountainhead of original content in his field, if only because that’s what seventeen years of immersive geekery on the subject does for someone.

Scot’s wife Emily is his “proof of concept”, given that she’s just as sweet as she is smokin’ hot and still gets carded at her age. But you’ll never hear her brag about any of that, only Scot.

His show The Mountain Top has also been named a Top 10 Dating Podcast by DatingAdvice.com, and a long time ago Grader.com weirdly ranked Scot the #1 most influential Facebook user in the world.
