Episode 43 - Marlie Jolanda: A Business(es) owner, femmepreneur on dark dark times, the joys of Dutch brownies, diving three levels deep in conversation, and more. Just listen. You'll love it..... her..... and maybe me...
Words will not do justice to Marlie's story. That happens to be true of many of my guests. Listen to it and you'll understand why. I'm still grateful that she would share this story at this time. It's not all dark, though... and we do manage to have a laugh, mainly her laughing at my fantastic British wit (read sarcasm and cynicism.)
I "borrowed" the following from her website:
Wait a minute… Who’s Marlie Jolanda?
Meaningful Marketing Business Coach, Serial Fempreneur-on-a-Mission, ACTION-taker, Wellnes-and-Wealth Advocate, #winwinwin Connector, Charity Supporter, Fighter-against-injustice, Loving Partner, and daring daughter and sister.
Marlie Jolanda is a Meaningful Marketing & Business Coach with high-energy. She is passionate about helping Entrepreneurs-on-a-Mission to stop being the ‘best kept secret’ and turn more potential customers into paying clients with Meaningful Marketing. She helps her clients save time/money and make more money by working SMARTER, not harder.
She started her career in corporate at BMW Group Netherlands in 2007. She was promoted twice in 1.5 years and became the first social media manager in the group worldwide at the age of 24. Whilst working in corporate she discovered an unresolvable gender wage gap. This ignited her mission to close the gap between men and women in income and influence.
She is also the founder of Secret SisinBiz Society, a unique collaborative community that empowers female entrepreneurs to win in business and life.
Marlie is changing the way women do business around the world. Her goal is to share Secrets-of-Success with more than 2 million Sisters-in-Business to help them grow personally & professionally with the #winwinwin model.
With over a decade of experience in the Marketing/ Sales/ Networking Industry, Marlie has helped thousands of entrepreneurs world-wide stop wasting time and money on marketing that doesn’t work, and to excel beyond expectations.
Since starting on her own in 2016, Marlie launched various successful businesses in Coaching, Presenting, Workshop Training and Networking-for-Women.
Marlie doesn’t believe in ‘self-made’. Her wins, her clients’ wins and her SisinBiz community wins are a joined effort and involve many supportive humans. She knows from experience that choosing to operate in isolation does not work – no matter how much you believe you can do it on your own. The greatest joy of all is making a difference and growing/learning TOGETHER. Human connection & celebration is what FULFILLMENT is all about.

More about the Rotary Passport Club and them supporting the Love Bites Program (ASK: If people have connections at Highschools, please reach out! We would love to help more 15-17yr old Students in year 10/11/12 and come in to facilitate the Love Bites Program for a few hours. BONUS: we managed to fundraise for our next visits so no additional costs to the school.)
