Learn How to Turn your Story and your Struggles into a Thriving Business with guest Marian Bacol-Uba, TedX Speaker, International Best Selling Author, and Founder of the Thriver Lifestyle EP095


One of my top sales secrets that shocks people to this day is: stories make the sales.

People only spend money for products, people and services they feel emotionally connected to in some way. This is why people will be loyal to one brand over another who sells almost the identical thing. This is why people will hire one human over another who both have similar qualifications, talents, and recommendations.

So if you want to stand out from the masses, you must share your unique story and those people who feel impacted by it will become raving fans, followers, and paying customers.

If I didn’t share my stories whether it be how I went from severe abuse to abundance, or how I went from 17k to a millionaire, or how I lost almost a million dollars when I was 30 all from lack of self-worth, how would I be able to greatly impact and engage all of you beautiful souls? By sharing stats, facts, and my credentials….I DON’T THINK SO.

On today’s episode Marian Bacol-Uba, TedX Speaker, International Best Selling Author and Founder of the Thriver Lifestyle will share how she turned her story into a successful business.

Years ago, Marian was a successful marketing executive, yet she still felt unfulfilled, unhappy and dealt with her PTSD and depression through alcohol and substance abuse. It wasn’t until an overdose and out-of-body, near-death experience that she finally WOKE UP! She was given a second chance and has since radically transformed her life and business through holistic health, wellness and mindset mastery.

Marian shares her inspiring “Survivor to Thriver” story globally and empowers women to stop living in survival mode and start thriving in mind, body and soul. She speaks on conscious entrepreneurship, women’s empowerment and leadership, meditation and wellness. She merges her 15+ years of marketing, event production and business development experience with her mission to create positive social impact and help elevate the collective consciousness. Marian has been featured on CBS Los Angeles, Thrive Global, Medium, Elephant Journal, Bustle, SWAAY Media, Miami Under 40 and over 35 podcasts and publications. For more info visit

Welcome to Part 3 of the Walk Into the Biggest Quantum Jump of Your Life Guided Walking Meditation series. One of the biggest misconceptions about transformation is that your next level requires you to do more.

More learning.
More effort.
More proving.
More pushing.

But sometimes the greatest breakthrough comes from removing what’s no longer meant to come with you.

In this guided walking meditation experience, you’ll explore the emotional weight, outdated stories, fears, identities, and expectations that may be quietly slowing your progress. Because even the most powerful Fire Horse struggles when it’s carrying burdens it was never meant to carry.

Ep 800 Walk Into the Biggest Quantum Jump of Your Life Part 2: PREPARE

Welcome to Part 2 of the Walk Into the Biggest Quantum Jump of Your Life series. One of the biggest reasons people stay stuck isn’t because they lack clarity.

It’s because they’ve unknowingly handed the reins of their life over to fear, old conditioning, perfectionism, overthinking, and patterns that no longer fit who they’re becoming.

Many people believe they’re waiting for the right opportunity, the right sign, or the right timing. But often what’s really happening is they’ve stopped trusting themselves to lead.

In this guided walking experience, you’ll begin exploring what’s truly been directing your life and why reclaiming your power starts with a decision. A decision to stop drifting and start consciously leading yourself toward the life you’re meant to create.

This walk is designed to help you reconnect with your inner authority, strengthen self-trust, and recognize what has been quietly influencing your choices, behaviors, and direction.
