We have learned two things from our 21st century, post-pandemic experience as human beings: Success without wellness is fool’s gold, and wellness cannot be maintained without a regimen of consistent self-care—of mind, body and spirit. In Success Starts Within, Chazz Scott provides such a regimen, and in doing so, delivers a blueprint for authentic fulfillment and resilience despite turbulent times and circumstances. If you want results, follow this regimen.”
