Your Exceptional Life with Marcus Pearce is a weekly podcast dedicated to helping you RISE to magnificent in each area of your life. Niching your business is one thing, but niching your life is disastrous. Whether it’s the career-minded workaholic who makes no time to invest in relationships, children or a healthy lifestyle OR the busy mum who is too tired to work on the marriage, her friends and the things she truly loves. These are just two stereotypical examples of how we have over-niched our lives and unconsciously allowed mediocrity to become acceptable. Each week Marcus looks at one area of the Exceptional Life - life purpose (career), movement, social, nutrition, love and relationships, growth, wealth and spirit - and discuss small but seismic shifts that can make a massive difference in our quality of life. Up until around 2006, Marcus lived anything BUT the exceptional life. A workaholic smoking, binge-drinking processed food and Red Bull-guzzling TV and radio producer fo

I won't lie. Billie Eilish fascinates me. Her music, her style, her genre (so many), her dedication, and so much more. But there's two elements of Eilish's success that really get me.
Firstly, her dedication - alongside brother Finneas - to the 10,000 hour rule - and how the pair have stopped at nothing to see their vision materialise (which is happening before our very eyes and ears).
Secondly - Eilish's success shows the power of teamwork, in so many ways. From her family to the band, to the record label and the fans, there is something so powerful about success that reminds us all that it can never be achieved alone. Watching Eilish sing "Therefore I Am" with the support of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra was truly inspiring. You can watch this on Disney Plus.

Dr John Demartini has been one of my great mentors in life.
Having attended The Breakthrough Experience and Prophecy I alongside my wife, Sarah, Dr Demartini’s work has laid the foundation for much of what I talk about in living an exceptional life.
Dr. Demartini overcame learning and speech problems that he had since childhood and recovered from a traumatic brain injury. His mentor, Paul Bragg, allowed him to see that he could change his story and become intelligent. He passed his GED and attempted to go back to school. He was driven by his vision of traveling the world as a teacher, philosopher, and healer, and he was willing to pay any price to get there. Determination can overcome any obstacles.
In this interview, we discuss how you can reframe your perception of trauma in order to cultivate resilience and unlock your greatest gifts. This interview has the wisdom you need to hear in order to become the master of your destiny.

Welcome back to the relaunched podcast of Your Exceptional Life! Refreshed and raring to go, this podcast acts as an official companion to my book with the same name.
Each week I’ll be discussing in more detail certain topics from the book. Today, I share how the book came to be birthed over a 5+ year timeframe and how I stumbled upon what I call the Exceptional Life Blueprint.
