In this episode of 'Better Men Get Better Women - The Mountain Top,' host Scott McKay interviews Brandon Wade, co-founder and CEO of Seeking.com, about the transformative power of dating women who inspire you. Wade shares his personal journey from struggling with dating despite high success, to founding a platform that flips the traditional dating dynamic by attracting women who are drawn to achievement and ambition. He recounts how his early experiences on mainstream dating apps led to frustration and low response rates, prompting him to build Seeking.com to create a space where successful men could connect with women who value their accomplishments. After years of transactional relationships and personal experimentation, Wade reached a turning point at age 50, realizing that physical attraction alone wasn't enough—he needed a partner who challenged and elevated him intellectually and emotionally. This led him to meet Dana, a 20-year-old UCF student, who not only inspired him but also helped him grow personally and professionally. Their relationship evolved from a platform-driven connection into a deep, intentional partnership based on mutual respect, shared values, and a commitment to making the world better. The episode emphasizes that real confidence comes from real-world practice with women, not AI simulations, and that vulnerability, honesty, and self-awareness are essential to building meaningful relationships. Key takeaways include: 1) Build your identity and success before seeking relationships—don’t let a partner define you. 2) Dating should be a practice ground for emotional intelligence, not just physical attraction. 3) Seek women who challenge and inspire you, not just those who reflect your image. 4) Real confidence is earned through real interaction, not AI roleplay. 5) Vulnerability and honesty in your profile attract the right people. 6) Age gaps are less important than shared values and emotional maturity. 7) The best relationships are partnerships where both people grow together. 8) Platforms like Seeking.com exist to help men access women who value ambition and depth. Overall, the episode champions a shift from transactional dating to purpose-driven connection, where both partners are catalysts for each other’s growth.

…and 3 more takeaways available in PodZeus
The Power of Dating Women Who Inspire You
“What if you started dating women who inspire you? Ah, that's tricky because we think of ourselves as the leaders, the masculine ones, the providers, the protectors, the ones who kind of are presiding over the relationship and someday over our households and our families. That doesn't mean we're the only ones who should be inspiring the other people who we love in our family, including the woman we're with. She should absolutely inspire us too.”
From Dating Frustration to Building a Platform
“I had to lower my standards to date more average looking women that I was not really attracted to in order to get a response. And I'm like, no, that's not what I want. You know, I need to invent a machine that allows me to date the types of women I'm attracted to...”
The Turning Point: From Transactional to Transformative
“I was dating women that was beautiful, but really didn't have goals, were lost, and they couldn't help me. I had to always help pull them up, and it was really, really tough.”
The Real Value of Real Human Interaction
“You can get practice, but you're not going to get real confidence from that. You may get the knowledge, but you're not going to get the mindset because artificial intelligence can't give you a real mindset.”
Building a Relationship Based on Mutual Growth
Wade shares how Dana, his partner, challenged him, called him out when wrong, and helped him avoid the 'echo chamber' of yes-men. Their relationship is built on shared ambition, honesty, and a commitment to making the world better. They’ve decided to waive divorce rights and prenups, treating marriage as a true partnership.
“You can get practice, but you're not going to get real confidence from that. You may get the knowledge, but you're not going to get the mindset because artificial intelligence can't give you a real mindset.”
“The moment we wake up each day, by the time we go to bed, did we leave this world better than we woke up this morning? That's the difference.”
“What if you started dating women who inspire you? Ah, that's tricky because we think of ourselves as the leaders, the masculine ones, the providers, the protectors, the ones who kind of are presiding over the relationship and someday over our households and our families. That doesn't mean we're the only ones who should be inspiring the other people who we love in our family, including the woman we're with. She should absolutely inspire us too.”
