Ep 168: Marcus Aurelius Higgs ~ Self-Love, Spirituality & Transformative Storytelling

Truth & Transcendence

What if you could truly embrace your authentic self and inspire others to do the same? Join us for an invigorating conversation on Truth & Transcendence with our special guest, Marcus Aurelius Higgs. Marcus shares a deeply personal story from his childhood—intentionally underperforming on a gifted programme test to avoid higher expectations. This revelation sets the stage for a broader discussion about the importance of self-acceptance and the journey to embracing one's true identity, particularly for those like Marcus, who grew up as a third culture kid navigating multiple cultures.
Our exploration continues with a heartfelt discussion on the spiritual experiences that have shaped Marcus' life and communication philosophy. From his upbringing as a Seventh-day Adventist to transformative moments in multiple culturescapes, we delve into the rich tapestry of experiences that broadened his understanding of spirituality. Influences like Rupert Spira introduced him to non-dualism, and his relationship with his father deeply impacted his career as a communication coach for parents. These threads weave together to form a narrative emphasising sincere belief and well-being as core principles guiding Marcus' life and work.
Finally, we unpack the transformative power of storytelling and slam poetry, especially in processing emotions and stress. Marcus's journey into poetry, inspired by an HBO documentary, highlights the healing and expressive potential of this art form. We also discuss how narrative theory informs his work with parents, helping them understand themselves and communicate more effectively with their pre-teens. Marcus shares his expertise in conducting impactful parenting workshops, such as "14 Conversations to Have Before 14" and "Creating a Digital Plan as a Family." This episode is a treasure trove of insights on leadership, both within the family and beyond, making it a must-listen for anyone committed to personal growth and effective communication.
