Life doesn’t always follow the script — and Will Hunt knows it. From Oxford, Mississippi, to Scotland (yes, with Prince William as a classmate), to politics in D.C., to building a thriving agency back home, his story is full of unexpected plot twists.

In this episode, Amanda and Will get real about trusting the detours, recognizing the signs, and leaning on faith (and sheer willpower) when the path changes. Will opens up about moments that could have derailed his career, the pivots that defined him, and why success often comes from what you don’t see coming.

Whether you’re at the start, in the messy middle, or staring down your own plot twist, this conversation will give you perspective — and a push to keep climbing.

Until next time, keep chasing big dreams and remember...Ambition is not a dirty word.

Welcome to the debut episode of The Ambition Society Podcast with Amanda Adams — your new go-to space for ambitious conversations. This is where dreamers, doers, and bold thinkers come to explore the real, unfiltered side of chasing big goals.

In this kickoff mini-episode, Amanda sets the tone for what listeners can expect: honest, energizing discussions about ambition, setbacks, pivots, and the small wins that build big dreams. Forget the curated highlight reels — this is about navigating the messy middle with persistence and courage.

This week’s episode is inspired by Hollywood producer Will Packer and his book Who Better Than You?. Amanda shares how his philosophy of dreaming big and moving forward — even in small increments — reflects the heart of this show.

Her challenge to listeners is simple: keep going. Whether you’re thriving or fighting through a tough week, progress comes from steady forward motion.

Don’t miss tomorrow’s full episode, where Amanda welcomes her first guest, Will Hunt, for an insightful conversation on pivoting, growth, and turning ambition into reality.
