In this podcast, you will find conversations, strategies AND empowerment to get you more visible, credible and profitable!  

My mission is to help you EMBRACE all that you are, so you can let the EMPOWERED WOMAN within come forward and lead the way.

I‘m Marta Spirk, Brazilian born and raised, triplet mom, and after a 20-year career as a teacher, translator and interpreter, I found my passion in EMPOWERING WOMEN to step into their entrepreneurial potential. 

I started my business in 2016 with network marketing and pivoted my way toward Empowerment Coaching & Marketing Strategy. In the last several years, I've built a 6-figure business, landed a TEDx and became a best-selling author - The Empowered Woman: The Ultimate Roadmap to Business Success.

I've chased shiny objects; I've spent a lot of $$$ in programs and mentors and ultimately found that the best investment is in learning to LOVE and ACCEPT myself and discover my UNIQUE GIFTS to share with the world.
