About Marcus

Marcus Pearce spent years studying the world's Blue Zones — the regions where people routinely live past 100 in good health and good spirits — to understand what they have in common, and what the rest of us can learn from them. As a health and longevity expert, speaker and co-host of the 100 Not Out podcast, he has translated the lessons of Ikaria, Sardinia, Okinawa and the Seventh-day Adventist communities of California into a framework for living and working better in the modern world.

His presentations sit at the intersection of health science, positive psychology and practical philosophy. Marcus is not interested in extreme performance or short-term optimisation — he's interested in the sustainable practices that allow people to thrive across a full lifetime. That orientation makes his work particularly relevant to corporate audiences dealing with burnout, disengagement and the unsustainable pace of contemporary professional life.

On stage, Marcus is an engaging and thought-provoking presenter who makes the lessons of the world's oldest healthy people feel both surprising and immediately applicable. His talks on longevity, mental health mastery and the shift from work/life admin to work/life plan give audiences a different lens on what a well-lived life and a well-designed career actually look like — and practical steps to get there.
