Brian Rose has interviewed Demartini three times on London Real, in 2022, 2024 and 2025. They have talked about values, gratitude, purpose, money, relationships and what he sees as the limits of the law of attraction.
His core idea is that your highest values shape your life and that living by them leads to fulfilment. Each interview is listed below in order with a short summary.
How To Change Your Life: The Secret Formula For Wealth & Purpose (September 2025). His most recent interview and the clearest overview of the Demartini Method and his ideas on values and wealth.
Demartini argues that everyone has a personal hierarchy of values. Speaking in 2024, he said that trying to live by other people’s values or an idealised image of yourself leads to frustration, while aligning your life with what you value most brings leadership, creativity and progress.
Gratitude comes up in all three interviews. In 2022 he shared his ideas on gratitude and on why blaming other people holds you back, and in 2025 he described gratitude as the highest form of wealth.
In his 2022 interview he said people’s results with money follow from their mentality and values. In 2025 he linked purpose-driven living to both fulfilment and financial abundance.
Although he appeared in The Secret, Demartini discussed in 2025 what he believes the film got wrong about the law of attraction. In 2024 he put his own view this way: the magnificence of who you are far exceeds any fantasy you will ever impose upon yourself.
