About this episode

Hector Marcel discusses modern Buddhism and its application in personal and organizational change.

We welcome Hector Marcel, the rebellious voice of modern Buddhism and a master of organizational change. From high-stakes corporate boardrooms to New York’s premier enlightenment studio, Hector has spent decades proving that ancient Tibetan technology is the ultimate tool for navigating the chaos of the 21st century. As a scholar, speaker, and mental health coach, he helps individuals and global teams hack the code of the human mind to unlock untapped potential and achieve excellence through stillness. In this conversation, Seb and Hector deconstruct the "Beautiful Lie" of reality and the physics of perception. They explore why we are "never enough" in a world of infinite potential, how to transform physical pain into bliss, and the controversial truth about "looksmaxxing" versus inner longevity.
