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.

On this week's show, we are exploring what lessons can be learned since the dust has settled from the slap seen around the world. I'm not going into great detail of my overall opinion, but I am speaking pointedly about the results since. I know you are probably tired of talking about it, but give me a few minutes to make sure you get the lesson at hand.
