    Untouchable energy
    Scotty is one of the most energetic, inspiring, AUTHENTIC people I know! I am super conservative about what I consciously consume and allow in my routine, and this podcast is DEFINITELY WHITNEY SAUSE APPROVED. Thanks for sharing your light with this world, Perspective podcast!
  • Grubbie33
    Great “Perspectives”
    But really, this is a down-to-earth, earnest exploration of what it takes to buckle down on your creative side hustle. Guests are all active in their industries, insightful and candid. There’s a great community built in too, so you can connect with fellow creatives, get advice and stay committed to your goals. 10/10

    Been looking for a podcast for my creative grind for a while now and I finally landed on this one. Definitely fuel for my mind and creative hustle. Scotty offers highly inspiring and valuable information. Looking forward to more!
  • Azlst
    Love and need to listen
    Scotty is incredible, every episode he provides great insight. He knows what to say to inspire and motivate you. I started listening at a very dark time and I started looking at my life differently. Thank you for your hard work and your insightful words. My design Instagram is @creativlidesigned and personal is @amyeggrollli if any one wants to connect! I’m always up to connect with like minded people and talk or meet up.
  • Bearmarquis
    This is going to be a punch in the gut.
    Scotty’s got a place in my heart for sure. He’s always on point with his information. Even his pep talk episodes really just hit different.
  • theJENN
    Fuel for MY Creative Grind
    PP is a triple-edged sword of education, inspiration, and entertainment—a must-listen for anyone looking to boost their creativity and level up their creative career. Absolutely love Scotty’s sincerity and transparency, not to mention the goldmine of actionable tips and next steps that he and his star cast of guests provide. I find myself repeat listening to almost all the episodes because there’s ALWAYS something that I need to hear and rehear to refocus and relight the fire under my butt. Since listening, I’ve been super inspired to hone my craft and take steps that I’ve been lazy/afraid to take for such a long time! Thanks so much Scotty — you prob don’t know the value and impact this podcast has to me and the art community as a whole. Please keep the great content comin’! MAHALO from Hawaii! @theinkmint
  • Kalirally
    Scotty seems to genuinely want to help
    And his passion shows in this podcast. I’m not a huge fan of “hustle and grind” culture but I still find myself frequently tuning into this show. The podcast is inspiring bc it goes deeper than just systems and practices; it also urges you to reflect on your why, connect with and express the self, and it also shares stories the listener can connect with and apply to his or her own journey. I find that it has more heart than a lot of other podcasts in the art and business space, would recommend!
  • Yeti.2
    Daily Inspiration
    Can’t even remember how I came across the show now but so glad I did. Inspiration and a wealth of knowledge from a growing community is always in ready supply. Always look forward to what’s next!

    Young midwest designer/constant follower of the cast!
    Hey man! LOVE the podcast first off second, I really enjoy your view and knowledge on design and helping small designers reach their heights. I’m a small town Iowa kid, trying super hard to kick off my company during this pandemic. And I’ve been soaking in everything you and your guests are saying. I love it! Thanks and keep it coming! - Ethan Hipsher (Underdog Design Co.)
  • That Dud3
    This hits different.
    I’ve listened to many different people talk about many of the same topics that Scotty covers. I don’t know exactly what it is... but he brings a certain “grounded-ness” to self help conversations that usually feel too airy to do anything practical with. I’ve only listened to 2 episodes but I’m excited to dive in further.
  • Z Morris
    This podcast helped respark my lost passion!
    This podcast has been so helpful to me in this stage of my creative journey. It’s really reigniting a lost passion for me! I got burned out at my last job and recently quit and started a new gig. I’m talking this time to grow professionally, clear my head from my last job, and provide that stability for my wife and I while I sharpen my skills, explore side projects and hone in on what I really wanna do with my talents and my life! I recommend this podcast for every creative out there that needs some new inspiration and a fresh perspective in their lives! Thanks for creating this Scotty!
  • Mr. Mug
    Scotty’s message is clarity, encouragement and ACTION!
    The messages Scotty puts out in every podcast are truly the words that me and a whole lot of people need to hear. Concepts like showing up when it’s not convenient and adopting a pro-mindset really resonate with me. The biggest takeaway after listening, is that we will feel uncomfortable but have to accept, and look forward to, that what is on the other side, is growth and change. Thanks, Scotty, for this podcast and making such a huge impact on so many creatives’ lives 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
  • BCOLMENARES
    Since the Episode with Made by James
    Straight shooter podcast, just the way I like em! Began listening because I’m a fan of Made by James’ work and glad I did. Looking forward to many more VALUEable episodes 🤘🏽
  • Npgraphicdesign
    One of the best creative and inspirational podcasts out there!
    It's hard to find a more well-rounded and diverse podcast than this! Scotty has been knocking it out of the park with every single guest and topic for a while now. Most of the episodes are downloaded on my Spotify app so I can access it on the go. Keep killin' it Scotty!

    Top 5 Side Hustle Podcast
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for a few years, and I’ve grown so much from Scotty’s wisdom. Beyond the solid weekly content, I love how the podcast grows with him without ever feeling redundant. He leads by example and shares what he has learned throughout his journey in an open and sincere manner. You Rock, Scotty! – Elgin from @morehumanpodcast

    My #1 Favorite Podcast
    I've been listening to this podcast for about a year nowand it's absouletely my favorite. During times where I start to feel unmotivated, imposter syndrome, and in doubt, this podcast really helped get through it and helped me to even improve in my career. I learned soooo much valuable information from this podcast. I would recommend this podcast to any creative person who wants to grow their business or to even just feel inspired again.
  • Krissa Hjartar
    Want to take your creative life to the next level? Then listen!
    Whenever I get a chance to listen to podcasts, this show is at the top of my list. Scotty is super inspirational and a skilled creative. Not only does he share everything with his listeners on how to grow as a creative entrepreneur; he also brings amazing talent to the show sharing their experiences. This show can change your life. I’ve learned so much from this podcast and have directly learned from Scotty through his Sidehustlers program. Must listen if you are a creative or just wanting to take your side hustle to the next level. Krissa
  • Jefjaxlake
    Scotty Russell is Legit
    This is definitely the podcast for any creative who wants to get their side hustle up and running. I’ve followed Scotty since I started my hand lettering journey a few years back. He was one of my first supporters and inspired me to keep going. His advice is solid, honest and authentic. He truly wants to help creatives be their best. His podcasts offer so much value and actionable advice, not only for business but for life.

    This podcast will push you to do your best!
    I’ve been listening to the perspective collective podcast for 2-3 years now and it’s been one of the biggest pushes to follow my creative dream full time. In a Covid world I was let go from my agency job. Thanks to the podcast I felt ready to lean into the shakeup, it give me the skills, the motivation and most importantly the mindset to hit the ground running! Now I’m winning big contracts haveing zoom meetings with small entrepreneurs and big community organizers. If found my niche in non profits and orgs that help marginalized communities. I wake up and do what I love every single day. While not all the pieces are there I’m confident that the puzzle is being put together slowly but surely and that keeps me going. I cannot thank Scotty enough for the push @yamzgramz
  • Niki Jones | ntj_design
    THANKS SCOTTY!!!!
    If you’re a creative trying to grow your business and online presence YOU NEED THIS PODCAST. Scotty and his amazing guests (designers that I’ve looked up to for years) lay out everything you need to do to pave your path to success. I’ve used this podcast as daily motivation to push through my side hustle after long days at my full time job. After taking tips from Scotty and his guests I started to post consistently for a month and modify my instagram to grow true fans. On week 6, I scored a feature from a huge design page AND Adobe asked to feature one of my designs on their Instagram page. I also doubled my follower count. I owe all of this to Scotty’s podcast and his online community, couldn’t have done it without them! If you haven’t listened yet, what are you waiting for?! -ntj_design
  • C.J. - @c.j.amaya
    Always 🔥
    Man,… I’m always encouraged and motivated to take it to the next level after listening to an episode! I encourage that you start at EP 1 and binge this immediately. This content is always relatable and is a Podcast that you need to add to your schedule, weekly. Today, I listened to EP 171, and it hit me hard. Right now, we’re on the back-end of the quarantine, but this whole episode was encouraging and relatable. I’m in the middle of Mye’s course right now and my mind is racing sooo much with ideas and things to do… BUT, Scotty's encouragement to "Do one thing a day that moves the needle forward in your business", helped me reset my mind. It has relieved the thought of trying to sprint to my career goals... I can just jog it out, and pace myself for this creative marathon. The work will be there tomorrow, so don't worry about how everyone else is running their race. DO what I can daily and that's enough. Thanks, Scotty. ✌🏼
  • Santanabrandingco
    Awesome podcast for creatives
    Scotty is one of the most genuine, big-hearted people I’ve never met in person. Think of him as a personal trainer for your creative career. There is so much value in these episodes that I legit feel like I’m stealing every time I listen.
  • Simon Cherni
    ‘‘Tis GOODA Stuff
    Not to sound cheesy. I have listened to a couple episodes while back, but just recently started listening to a lot more episodes and watched some of his instagram live videos. A lot of the stuff he talks about and cover about design and life I really resonate with. Good stuff keep it up. It motivates me to do simply things.
  • SamanthaO_20
    Motivational, educational & entertaining!
    I look forward to each new episode! I can feel my creativity and motivation to push my limits grow each time I listen. I love that while learning crazy valuable side hustle skills I also giggle and smile along as Scotty teaches. He’s super relatable and loves corny jokes as much as me! @HerdingBlueCreative
  • Marteta V.
    Powerful and Reassuring
    Very inspiring podcast full of real, down-to-earth experiences from wonderful creative humans. Open talks about failure, fear, and the importance of small steps. A humble and fresh approach to creative life in a community sometimes full of egos and ‘fake it till you make it’ philosophers.
  • Dinomoto
    Motivation Station
    This is where I go when I need creative inspiration! Scotty is just a real dude, out here encouraging and lifting others up with his perspective and words. I find several golden nuggets in each of his podcasts and always walk away feeling a little wiser. 🦉✨

    Lighting that fire!
    Over the 10 years of designing for fun and finally completing my AFA in Graphic Design, I’ve struggled with gaining momentum in my side hustle. The last couple years I’ve seen a small growth in freelance work and excited to see it goes from here. Listening to this podcast for just a short few months has already given me tons of tools to help me grow and strengthen the skills I have. Was actually surprised with the recent Lincoln Design Co. podcast. I’ve been following them for a while on Instagram. Finally put things together and discovered that their shop is located in Vancouver, WA where I live. Thanks for such a informative and rad podcast. I’ll be following you over on IG @krwn_visuals and trying to absorb as much knowledge as I can.

    Scotty is The Relevant Real Deal
    I first started listening to my boy Scotty, about April, 2019, and I was hooked on listening to his perspective! When I heard about his coaching group a few months later, I applied and was accepted into the initial coaching group. Man, I’ve struggled with fear, consistency, and how to put together a plan of attack for years, and Scotty got me straight in 3 months! There are few people in this world that truly want to help someone who’s struggling and stay with them until they move through it. That’s who Scotty is, & that’s why he’s the Relevant Real Deal!
  • Honeyhivestudios
    This podcast lit a fire under my ...you know what
    I don’t recall how I found Scotty’s instagram, that led to me finding his stellar podcast.. it may have been a hashtag search for pizza...but I am so grateful I did! His down to earth, straight forward approach makes it feel like you are a part of an intellectual and entertaining conversation with your creative friends. I have learned soo much valuable knowledge for my creative pursuits. Thank you, Scotty! In the last few months my motivation, ambition, and creativity have been on fire more than ever. I highly recommend this podcast to any creative, wether a designer, muralist, or even a musician. Check out my instagram to see what this podcast has inspired me to do @honeyhivestudios!!
  • kicback2004
    Up your game, change your life
    If you haven’t listened to this podcast yet and you work in the design world it’s time to start. Scotty and his guests bring fire each episode. This podcast can fire up your career, and before you know it change your life as well. Just listen to a couple episodes you will be hooked!!! 👏🔥🔥🔥👏

    Reignite you’re passion for creating for yourself
    This ones long but bear with me if you are looking to reignite your passion: 6 months ago I was completely lost in a funk and not enjoying what I was creating at my day job. I had stopped posting any work for over 3 years on my Instagram. A friend of mine sent me a link to ONE episode (Ep. 140) about finding your Wolfpack. In that episode, I found out Scotty was doing a coaching program, so I took a chance and applied. I got into the program, and in the 3 months of following his guidance, I made so much progress that I’m still dumbfounded. Scotty will change your life. If you are looking to expand your mind and feel reinvigorated, Scotty has the best guests, the most value, and the most positive attitude. Listening to the Perspective Podcast every week gets me fired up to keep pushing my work and bring more value to what I post on @dudebeawesome. I can not recommend this podcast, and Scotty, enough.
  • hippytrish
    Shockingly informative AND inspiring
    A lot of side hustle podcasts are big on sharing success stories and providing inspiring - but they are depressingly deficient when it comes to actual things you can do. Scotty & co are different, each podcast I’ve listened to has given me concrete, actionable ideas that I started putting to use immediately. And it came in a friendly & entertaining manner. Highly recommended.
  • barttttt223
    So inspiring!
    I’ve been listening to this podcast since the early days. (Sorry for the delayed review!!) Scotty puts 110% into each episode and it really shows. His energy is so contagious and his guests are always top notch, sharing a ton of value each time. I also appreciate him sharing bits of his own personal and business growth. It’s been wonderful to see his brand evolve over the years. Keep crushing it!!
  • MariaTosti
    One of the Best!
    This is one of the best podcasts out there. It's genuine, it's so inspiring! Tons of value packed in. If you want to learn something new, enhance your social media, or connect with another creative, Scotty R has it all. Recent interview with Dina R was full of value and a lot of fun to listen to. Never a boring duo! I hope she's a repeat guest for sure. Share this one with your friends people! It's a gem.
  • @stoic.toad
    Knowledge Darts Everywhere
    First, Scotty is the man. He seems to get better every episode and even though he’s got a busy life he finds time to give back to the people that need it the most. As a creative myself who’s getting back into this world after an ignorant hiatus, this podcast is really everything I need. He’s got the best folks on the show to share their own stories and he does a great job by himself as well. I am praying for the day that he can transition to long format shows. I am admittedly greedy and I want that two hour long epi that goes super deep. I feel almost every guest-centered episode has had that potential. I know Scotty is a busy dude with a day job and family and cats but if he needs another person to tell him he’s on the right track then I’m that guy! I definitely see him coaching and podcasting full time in the near future. He’s a stud. And a vulnerable stud at that. Ps. as a former Illinois boy I’m all about that CASEYS PIZZA LIFE. Keep killin’ it Scotty <3 @Stoic.Toad
  • K.Wavy47

    Permission to run my race
    Scotty ROCKS! Honestly just one of the most genuine and authentic voices in podcasting I've heard. Every single episode I listen to inspires me and reminds me that it's ok to run my own race regardless of what's happening around me. Thanks for reminding all of us to run at our pace and giving us a little creative juice along the way!
