The Mark Cool Podcast: Outside the Box Life- Health hacking, lifestyle design, and personal growth
Join Mark Cool for conversations about living intentionally and fully. Raised by hippies in a Syracuse collective, Mark has spent decades experimenting with unconventional paths: indie musician, vegan baker, carpenter, folk artist, real estate investor, and tiny house dweller. He's walked on fire, built businesses, homeschooled his kids, and learned that the best life is one designed on your own terms. This podcast explores health optimization, lifestyle design, creative entrepreneurship, and personal growth for those committed to lifelong learning and living outside the box.
