Does the find command work on the Mac terminal?

On Linux, you could just run:

  sudo find ~/ -type f -name "*8 min Abs workout*”
And it would give you the full path, once you have that you could use the open command.

This command does work but doesn't lead to any meaningful results (at least in my case when I don't remember the exact file name)
Updated my comment to include asterisks around the filename, which could help if you only know part of it
Thanks. I think Terminal on a Mac needs somewhat a different command since the above-mentioned command won't execute.
