The Determined Society with Shawn French | Adversity & Mindset

The Determined Society with Shawn French is a weekly interview podcast exploring determination, mental toughness, adversity, and mindset through raw conversations with athletes, authors, and public figures. Host Shawn French unpacks how his guests break norms, rebuild identity, and develop the habits that fuel long term success, going beyond the headlines into the real stories behind the personas. Each episode digs into questions like: What drives a bestselling author to challenge the status quo? How does an athlete rebuild identity beyond the game? How do public figures use their platform to spark real change? These aren't soundbite interviews. They're honest, unscripted conversations about mental health, resilience, and what it actually takes to keep a commitment after the motivation fades. Expect humor. Expect heart. Expect breakthrough insights, whether it's a book that reshapes how people think, the impact of fame on mental health, or how athletes are redefining what success looks like off the field. If you're driven, curious, and want real conversations with the people shaping culture, business, and sport, The Determined Society is your show. New episodes weekly.
