Embracing the Unshakeable Spirit: My Journey to Purpose Over Profits

From Spencer Combs, Guest on the Purpose Over Profits PodcastGreetings, everyone!

​I'm Spencer Combs, and I recently had the privilege of being a guest on the Purpose Over Profits Podcast, hosted by Jeremy Powers and Jim Floyd. It was an incredible experience to share my journey, which I hope will inspire and resonate with many of you.
Finding My Dream in Florida

My story begins in Northern Florida, a place Amy and I dreamed of calling home. The journey to get here wasn't just about relocating; it was about transforming my life and business to align with my deepest aspirations. It was about setting an anchor goal with my wife, a practice we've maintained since 2014, to achieve what seemed distant and challenging.

Overcoming Adversity with Determination

Throughout my career, I've encountered numerous challenges, from financial hardships to making drastic career changes. These obstacles tested my resolve, but they also strengthened my conviction. I learned that to make significant changes, one must be willing to take risks and step out of comfort zones. It's about embracing the mentality that if a goal doesn't deeply motivate you, it's unlikely to propel you forward.

The Birth of the Unshakeable Agent

My experiences led me to create the "Unshakeable Agent." This platform is not just a business endeavor; it's a reflection of my life's work. It's about helping others find their footing in a tumultuous world, ensuring that their mindset and mechanics work in harmony. It's about teaching others to be resilient, to be unshakeable in their pursuit of goals.

The Power of Goal Setting and Resilience

One of the most significant aspects of my journey has been the annual goal setting ritual with my wife. This practice has been our compass, guiding us through life's unpredictability. It's about setting substantial, long-term goals and relentlessly working towards them.

Looking Ahead: Unshakeable Drive

As I shared my story on the podcast, I realized how far I've come and how my experiences could impact others. My upcoming book, "Unshakeable Drive," is a culmination of these experiences. It's designed to inspire, to guide, and to empower.

Reflections and Gratitude

Being a part of the Purpose Over Profits Podcast was a humbling experience. It allowed me to reflect on my journey and share the essence of what it means to pursue goals with an unshakeable spirit. My story is a testament to the fact that true success lies in the alignment of mindset, mechanics and movement.


To everyone who listened to the podcast, and to those reading this now, my journey is a reminder that resilience, determination, and clarity of purpose can turn dreams into reality. Remember, the pursuit of goals is not just about profits; it's about living a life filled with purpose and unwavering resolve. Keep striving, keep dreaming, and most importantly, stay unshakeable.

50 Cent, Government Cheese, and the Science of the Qualified Champion

The "Gangster" Paradox: Why Autonomy is the Ultimate Un-Goal The word "gangster" carries a lot of baggage. For most, it conjures images of the street, the hustle, or the headlines. But in his recent Esquire sit-down, 50 Cent stripped away the theater and gave us a definition that belongs on every entrepreneur’s whiteboard: "To me, gangster means to live the way you like without answering to anyone." Read that again. He’s not talking about crime; he’s talking about agency . He’s talking about the " Un-Goal ." The "Should" Monster vs. The Un-Goal In my work with the WRAP Sheet and Momentum & Mastery , we talk constantly about the " Should Monsters ." These are the invisible anchors—the projects you took on because a competitor did, the clients you tolerate because you’re afraid of the gap in your calendar, and the "hustle" habits that steal your emotional capital. Most people spend their entire careers building ...

An Uncomfortable Truth About Your Growth

There’s a silent, invisible force working against you every time you try to level up . It’s not your competitors. It’s not the economy. It’s not even your own self-doubt (though that’s a loud one). It’s the relentless, biological, psychological drive for homeostasis . Your brain, your body, your habits, your team, even your spouse and friends—they all crave stability. Predictability. The known. So, when you declare that 2026 will not be a repeat of 2025… When you launch that new product that changes everything… When you commit to that daily habit that elevates your game… When you decide to exit a draining client relationship … The system pushes back . This pushback, this opposition , isn't a glitch. It's the feature. Most people interpret friction as a stop sign. They hit resistance and think, "Oh, I must be doing something wrong." They retreat. They adjust. They shrink back to the comfortable. And that, right there, is how they guarantee another year of the same . B...

The Gravity of a Small Dream

Most people think they have a motivation problem. They don’t. They have a vision problem. In my book Momentum & Mastery , I talk about the Drift to Drive framework. The first stage—and the one where most people get stuck—is the Dream . But here’s the catch: Most 'dreams' aren't dreams at all. They are just logical extensions of where you already are. They are safe. They are manageable. And because they are safe, they have zero gravitational pull. A small vision is a recipe for drift. When your goal is just '10% more than last year,' your brain doesn't need to innovate. It doesn't need to find leverage. It just needs to grind harder. That’s how you end up exhausted and stagnant. To move into Drive , you need a vision that pulls you forward, a compelling future. You need to expand the walls of what you think is possible.
