Episode #992: Marc’s Book List: Comebacks, Radical Honesty, Haters, and Going Off The Grid

by | Sep 21, 2026 | Podcasts

You don’t have to agree with an author 100% to get something valuable from their book, and that is exactly the theme of today’s episode! Marc shares five more books he recommends coaches and entrepreneurs check out, ranging from a brand-new Jim Collins release to a radical honesty deep dive, to a year spent living completely off the grid with zero technology. There is something for everyone on this list!

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

  • Why the odds of getting through life without a major setback are close to zero, and what one of the most well-known post-presidential legacies teaches us about comebacks at any age.
  • How pigeonholing yourself into one thing forever is a trap, and the examples in one book prove it is never too late to pivot into something completely different and thrive.
  • What one legendary comic book writer says about boredom in the creative process, and why it matters more than ever for coaches creating content in the age of AI.
  • Radical honesty and the way it can lead to better health and less stress.
  • How standing your ground against haters was the most important ingredient in one media empire’s success.
  • What a man who spent over a year in the Irish countryside with zero electricity, no running water, and no phone can teach the rest of us about our relationship with technology.
