We Are The People Podcast
Behind every face is a story that has the power to inspire, connect, and change the way we see the world. We Are The People is where those stories are told—stories of everyday lives, big dreams, challenges overcome, and the small moments that leave a lasting impact.
Through open and honest conversations, we explore what makes us human: resilience, kindness, determination, and hope. These are not just stories you’ll hear; they’re experiences you’ll feel.
We believe that when we share our stories, we inspire others to find their own strength. Together, we are the people.

S5 - E5 - Scott Jenkins - A turning point at 30 leads to ultramarathons, Badwater, life lessons and smiling children
Scott Jenkins didn’t want to find himself at the age of 80 looking back at his life wondering what more he could have done with it, what more he could have achieved and the people he could have helped along the way.
Scott grew up in Wales and reached a turning point at the age of 30 where he decided to do something big, something that would have an impact on his life but also on lives around him. Himself and his brother decided to run 2000 miles from Boston to Austin, raising money and learning life lessons along the way.
Since that decision to run 75 marathons in 75 days, Scott has become an ultramarathon runner, a Badwater finisher, a high performing sales manager, a motivational speaker and has changed the lives of 93 children across the world, through Operation Smile.
Scott will inspire you to take the leap of faith you’ve been putting off and he’ll make it sound so simple… This is Scott Jenkins
