The Uncharted Podcast

Marc Rhodes

Lessons and insights from 35 years of being a human on a path less-trodden.

From being abandoned in a cardboard box as an infant, working 14 years in human performance, I've picked up quite a unique blend of experience and education.

Not limited to: getting a degree in Agriculture, to interning in a High Performance Centre.

From winning an invite to the British Championships as a Bodybuilder, to medals in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Being medically discharged from the British Army, to running the Marathon Des Sables, Jungle Ultra and Ice Ultra [podium on that one!]

From qualifiying in neuroscience and scaling a 7 figure business, to becoming a Mountain Leader.

I hope you enjoy.

    Vision

    "What do you want from life?" is one of the most intimidating questions conceivable. It's why so many avoid it. But if you have no purpose, you will pursue pleasure. Not having a clear understanding of where you want to go, who you aspire to be and what you want to achieve leads to an oscillation between existential crisis and self-soothing distraction techniques. Over committing to work or training. Doom scrolling. Wondering "where is all of this leading?!". It can not and will not ever lead to fulfilling ones fullest potential, or becoming Hard To Kill. In this episode, you can expect to learn WHY it's so immeasurably important to have clarity on your vision... And HOW to use a simple questioning sequence to iterate a vision for your future and create your mission. The answer is already within you. Let's find it...
