Scarlett Cochran is our guest! She’s an attorney, financial expert, and an entrepreneur with an amazing story! In fact, it’s an incredible example of a true DREAM THING DO story!
As a teenager… Scarlett was a Marine who also became a single mom living below the poverty line. As you can imagine… it was a tough season… but she got bold and audacious. Specifically… she gave herself permission to DREAM and get clear on the kind of life that she REALLY wanted to create for her daughter and her.
Then she went to work. Scarlett found a way to start her college degree by going to night school. She also found a way to buy a home at 20. And she kept dreaming… thinking and doing… and that led her to eventually leave the Marines and go to school full time. In fact, she was the first in her family to attend college! But she didn’t stop there.
Next… she set her sights on law school. Not only that but she decided to try to get in one of the top 14 law schools in the country. And guess what? She got into YALE (one of the prestigious law schools in the world!) and graduated with multiple job offers waiting.
She graduated… worked hard… figured out that she wanted to have some quality of life… so she worked as a banking and consumer finance attorney for:
In the past few years though… her story started to get out and people wanted to learn how she created a completely new life.
Since then… she’s touched the lives of millions by being featured by Good Morning America… Forbes… CNBC and Oprah, as well as her own YouTube channel.
Her brand new book called “IT’S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY - A PROVEN PATH TO BUILDING WEALTH AND LIVE THE RICH LIFE YOU DESERVE” was recently released and people are loving it!
So… we’ve got a LOT to talk about… so let’s get to this!

Episode minute-by-minute recap:
Scott Siepker is back! That’s right. We’re talking with the Actor, Writer and Executive Producer!
Scott’s well-known for his great creative work as well as his viral “Iowa Nice” videos!
Plus, this might be episode 375… but Scott joined us way back for episode 82 of DTD!
He’s been working on some exciting projects since our last conversation! One of the biggest updates is that Scott and his team have put together an INCREDIBLE documentary called “KINNICK.”
It’s the story of Nile Kinnick - who was a child of the depression who went on to win the Heisman Trophy and became a pilot in World War 2. Not only that… he became one of the best known people in the country. In fact, Ronald Regan once reflected that if Nile Kinnick hadn’t died in WWII… “he could have gone on to become the President of the United States.”
Plus, if you’ve ever walked through the main gate of the University of Iowa’s fabled football stadium… you’ve passed by a beautiful bronze statue of young Nile. But hey… whether you’re a sports fan or not… I can tell you… THIS is a powerful story!
We’re going to talk with Scott about Nile’s journey… as well as Scott’s own journey as he worked on the dream of creating this documentary for 10 years! And… as you’ll hear… he’s just getting started!
