The School Of Hard Knox
The School of HardKnox isn’t a motivational podcast—it’s a lived conversation.
Join Mark W. Knox every Monday for real, unfiltered dialogue about life as it actually shows up: his life, your life, and the lessons we earn along the way. This show sits at the intersection of business, relationships, health, faith, and balance—because success in one area without alignment in the others is a liability, not a win.
Each episode challenges listeners to think more clearly, move more intentionally, and lead themselves better. Mark draws from his own journey—wins, losses, silence, and seasons of rebuilding—while bringing in voices from his network of operators and thinkers: entrepreneurs, small business owners, executives, creators, investors, authors, and coaches who’ve done the work, not just studied it.
This is a podcast for people who are done chasing motivation and ready to build discipline.
For those who want to turn setbacks into leverage, ideas into execution, and pressure into clarity.
If you’re serious about capitalizing on opportunity, making sharper decisions, strengthening your relationships, and transforming failure into an asset—this is your room.
The School of HardKnox is about growth with accountability.
Progress with purpose.
And becoming the kind of person your goals require.
Pull up every Monday.
Expect to be challenged.
Leave better than you showed up.

#103: RECLAIMING MY TIME w/ Council Candidate Lakeisha Cook
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On this weeks show, ALL POLITICS ARE LOCAL! We are having a conversation with Lakeisha Cook, Cincinnati City Council Candidate for 2021. Lakeisha shares her visions, her convictions, and her connections to the city that have motivated her to pursue leadership in the form of politics. We have all seen what politics have become nationally and locally over the past few years. It has been exhausting to follow and has created more division than unity. Why would anyone want to be involved with this? Lakeisha talks to us about creating change from with-in and being a force of hope and healing in uncertain times. Her ideas for moving the city forward are inclusive and innovative. If you have ever considered running for political office or constantly finding yourself complaining about those who are, this is a must listen. Don't complain, make change!
