Personal Details

Bio

Scott Massey currently works as a professor, teaching in higher education at multiple universities. He also provides consulting services through his business, Massey & Martin, LLC. He is an inspirational speaker and resilience coach, dedicated to helping others strengthen their perseverance to achieve the life they want to live.

​

Scott began drinking at the age of twelve, dropped out of high school after his sophomore year, and was an alcoholic and drug addict without hope for a future by the time he turned twenty. When he realized his life wasn't headed anywhere, he decided to turn it around; he got his PA certification, Bachelor's degree, Master's degree, and completed his PhD first in his class. He is now an expert in his field, runs two businesses, and has been sober for almost twenty years.

​

His success is no fluke; his methodical approach to facing various challenges has helped him consistently achieve his goals. Now, he's sharing his system with others so they can learn to bounce back after failure and find success in their own lives.

  • "I enjoyed it a lot! What impacted me the most was when you talk about what makes yourself a better person. I myself deal with anxiety and think about things that I might not be able to do. But after your speech and how you were motivated, it inspired me that I can do things that I set my mind to."

  • "Your speech was greatly put together. I think it is amazing that you are able to talk to others about your past and how you were able to get through it. I think your speech has and will continue to help others with their personal struggles. I have two family members who struggle with alcoholism and it's very hard to watch . Alcohol is a getaway from reality to so many"
