Ever wondered how you can scale your business without burning out, micromanaging your team, or carrying everything on your shoulders? In this episode of Make Your Passion Pay, I sit down with bestselling author, speaker, and business strategist Marianne Page to explore how core values, consistency, and people-first systems create businesses that truly work for you.

Together, we dive into Marianne’s journey from spending 27 years as a senior manager at McDonald’s to helping business owners around the world scale with clarity and confidence. She shares how strong values, clear expectations, and consistent processes empower teams to take ownership, reduce overwhelm, and create workplaces where people feel valued and supported.

We also explore why so many business owners struggle with letting go, how involving your team builds accountability and trust, and why consistency is one of the most underrated tools for sustainable growth. Marianne offers practical, real-world insight into shifting from “doing everything yourself” to building systems and cultures that allow your business to grow without sacrificing joy or freedom.

This conversation is packed with wisdom for business owners, leaders, and entrepreneurs who want to scale intentionally, lead with heart, and create a business that supports both success and quality of life.


Tune in to learn how core values can guide your decisions, strengthen your culture, and help you scale your business with confidence and purpose.

Marianne Page’s Bio:

I’m Marianne Page, a bestselling author, speaker, and business strategist, and I help business owners scale without stress by building strong values-driven systems and empowered teams.

I spent 27 years as a senior manager at McDonald’s, where I learned firsthand how consistency, clarity, and people-centered leadership create resilient, scalable businesses. Those experiences shaped what I now call Big Mac Thinking, a practical approach to building businesses that run smoothly, deliver consistent results, and free owners from being the bottleneck.


Today, I work with entrepreneurs and leaders across industries to help them replace chaos with clarity, build cultures rooted in trust and accountability, and grow businesses that work for the people inside them. I believe businesses thrive when leaders invest in their people, lead with values, and create clear ways of working together.

My mission is to help business owners build companies they enjoy leading, teams they trust, and systems that support growth without burnout.

If you’re ready to scale your business with clarity, consistency, and confidence, I’d love to support your journey.
