We need more videos like this, we need more authentic content love it, and I learned a lot.
Agreed. :)
We're on it. 😉 And we're so glad to hear it. Sending lots of love your way. 💜
Ahhh soooo happy youre taking us behind the scenes 🙏🙏💜
This one^ is a special behind the scenes Marie tv 🧡…interesting specific stories and surprises, it went deep, dropped gems (ie. “consistency”) and fun too.
I really enjoyed this BTS content. I think it can be easy to assume after watching Marie do so many videos and her being the “face” that she did it alone and seeing what the team does and how it helps her and the greater company is refreshing and a nice reality check.
I am your fan from Indonesia, this episode was related to me, while i am working on my laptop, this video pop up after 6 min being uploaded, keep shining and inspiring Marie ... I need your energy ❤
💜💜💜
Hahaha so happy I'm not the only one from Indonesia that love Marie 😂

Really love the format of this interview. So real and chill yet powerful. Love seeing the evolution!
Hooray! Thank you so much for sharing and for being here. 🙏
Amen! Especially 21 minute mark. It has frustrated me when hiring managers focus on a book smart skill, and I feel like they're missing the untapped skill of someone who can get SH%T done when it hits the fan. Been there. I don't prefer chaos as a constant environment, but I know I kick ass when it happens. I loved it when an old boss of mine in a very high stress environment would say "Make it Happen!" and it totally worked for me. I was VERY surprised how many people could not handle this in 2020. No Coping skills... Thank you for this video. The whole thing was fabulous and after umteen years of following you, (2010?) I love this insight. Rock on, ladies!
I freaking LOVED this type of video from you Marie! After taking your B-School program in 2017, I've been able to build a very successful business, but I feel like I'm currently exactly where you were before you met Tana so this episode was sooooo relatable and helpful. Would love to hear more about the behind-the-scenes of running your business.... I feel like you talk a lot about getting started, but what should B-Schoolers do to continue growing and making even more of an impact? I'm so grateful for everything I've learned from you, you have no idea how much you've changed my life 🥲💕
Oh my goodness, Rose. We're so proud of you, your success, and your incredible attitude and motivation to make the world a better place. We're honored to be a part of your journey. We'll keep in touch 😊🫂💖
This is the best episode ever! Thank you so much for taking us behind the scenes!
You're so welcome. Thanks for being here, Emily! 💘
I love this video!!! It was so great seeing the behind the scenes and would really appreciate seeing more of this type of content
We're on it! 💪 Thank you so much for watching.
Impressive candid talk! Not surprised at all coming from Marie.
Love the part about consistency. It makes so much sense. Thank you!
Marie this episode was SO beneficial for me! I’ve so often wondered what your early years in business was like. I know you talk about when you first started coaching and how you worked many jobs to keep going but I’d love to learn more about what life was like when your business really started to take off. What was your first big break? When were you able to go full time in the business? I think this would help me believe in the possibility for myself 😊
Thank you for all you’ve done and all you and your team continue to do. Your work has truly changed my life 🫶♥️
This is such a good format and the information is golden. I took away so many nuggets for a business I'm opening soon.
I loved this! As someone just starting out on my own, this conversation was invaluable. There were so many gold nugget moments to consider, especially around hiring the right people. I enjoy hearing about the back end of an operation, especially the mistakes you've made along the way. It makes it more relatable to hear how you grew your business and what some of your struggles were. Would love to see more content like this again.
We're on it. 😊 And keep going - we know there can be so many questions when you're just starting out, but you've got it right. One foot in front of the other. We're so glad you're here. xoxo
I love this episode!! More behind the scenes please 😁
YES!
We're so happy to hear it! We'll pass it along. 😉
Love this look into Marie’s early business and lessons learned. I’d love to see more content like this.
great video, and yes, consistency is magic - definitely not to be underestimated
You're so right. Never underestimate the power of showing up every. single. day. So grateful you're here! Thank you for sharing with us. ⭐
I enjoyed this behind-the-scenes video and all the insights into your journey, Marie. We must work smart and part of that is building a team and a network. I was a lone wolf for years, not growing on social media, not getting good reach. But I am relentless and am changing things now. It's always nice to hear successful people talk about their struggles. Thank you! Liz
We're so happy you enjoyed this convo with Marie and Tana, Liz. And we're so proud of your perseverance. 💖 Keep going! xoxo
Nice to know more about your journey Marie!
"build the muscle of not giving up..." 🔥
You are 100% correct in talking about consistency. I work in education and I tell my students all the time that "being smart" is a set of behaviors and disciplines that we can all employ. Thank you, Marie for sharing the truth of the keys of success!
We're so glad you're here, Kathy! 🫂
Love this! I'd love to hear more conversations with people you couldn't imagine running your business without. Within those convos, when you knew it was important to fill or delegate that role.
Heard! 😃 So happy you're here. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, Victoria! Sending buckets of love your way.
This was so valuable! I would love more like this- behind the scenes...how you create the magic of success...how you recover from loss. You mentioned a financial loss...what steps did you take to fix the mistake and did you take new steps to recover the loss? Thank you to both of you for sharing so honestly. I am right in the sinkhole of 'I can't do it all by myself anymore' and not sure how to afford the A-Player that I need.
Thank you
Keep going, Patricia. We're sending you all the love and support. 🫂
That was cool. Thank you. I am a published author, and have plans someday to make a game of it [my novel]. Really hard to see the path from where I am now to where I'd love to be. I needed to hear this for some reason. It was organic, and I needed that. Not some textbook theory, but the real nuts and bolts, the real people.
Oh how we love this. Thank you so much for your beautiful share - and we're so proud of the publishing of your novel (and your dreams for a matching game). Keep going. We're rooting for you, Ian! 💪
Great & inspiring conversation, happy to see more - merci !!
Hello Marie and work wife! I LOVED this conversation. It helped me SO MUCH! I'm at a place in my business where I can use EVERYTHING both of you shared. AWESOME! I always learn SO MUCH from you Marie. I love you. And, I want to be like you when I finish growing up. And I'm only 69 going on 49! (LOL!)
What a lovely share. 💖 We're so happy you're here. Your positivity and uplifting message just made our day! xoxo
This video popped up on my feed for the first time. I’ve never heard of your work before, but wow this was very helpful conversation. You hit so many relatable points. Thank you!
We're so thrilled you found us and you loved listening to Marie and Tana. 💖 We love new friends! 😊
Loved this Marie and Tana🤩👏🏼💖🌟! I don’t know if I am slow on the uptake 😂🙏🏼, but I would also find it really valuable to hear exactly what types of admin and operational jobs Tana did for you at first, to help you realize your vision of growth 🌟🥰👍🏼!
Amazing interview! Thank you, ladies. love your collaboration
What a fun interview. Besides getting a fun sneak peak into your personal and professional life, everything resonated so much with me. I am very lucky to have a similar relationship with my employers and I was feeling the love bubbles coming to the surface!!! It's so much fun and joy to get to be yourself at work and get paid to do it :). Oh and zanny is very underrated LOL. xoxoxoxoxox love to you both!
Loved this, more BTS please!
I love it! It helps me a lot. ❤
Thank you for this video! Behind the scenes info is very encouraging to me ❤
We're so happy you're here. 🫂
this was amaaaaaazing! Thank you! I'd love more stuff like this, yes, please!
I am exactly at a point where I need me a TANA...!!!!
You can say that again. All of our lives would improve if we had a Tana, right?! Sending you tons of love and our best wishes for you to find your person. 💜
same! this video popped up today for a reason…
Yesss!!! Loved this one! Please make more like this! ❤
I really loved this kind of content!! ❤ Hope to see more of it!!
💖💖💖
great conversation! One thing I am always interested in is what "things" "stuff" people utilize in their business. Why not learn from others? For example, your microphones. How many have you tried over the years or researched to end up with the handhelds you are using? Why do I need to take time from my work to do all this research that you have already gone through? This kind of concrete "things" that so many need (maybe not microphones but an invoice program or office chairs), some else has done the research, at least enough that it could narrow choices and reduce time for me to find out what I need. Thanks!
Thank you for doing this interview! I really needed to hear about the time at the beginning of your business journey, when you were burning out, not being able afford to hire help and feeling like "you're bad at business" - cause that's where I am at! Now I know that it's not unusual to be in that position and feel that way ;) It helps to hear about the hardships successful entrepreneurs had gone through, because it reminds the new business owners that it's all part of the process. It gives me strength to keep going. Much love to you, Marie and the team!
It sure isn't unusual to feel like you don't know what you're doing when you first start just about anything. You're not alone, and we're so honored you found our work helpful and supportive! We deeply appreciate your kind words, and we're always happy to hear from you. Send us a message or shoot us an email anytime for some free resources, too! Sending love. ❤
Love the behind the scenes! Love to hear more about how the team works day-to-day.
I really enjoyed this conversational format too! I would love to know about the origin of your business!!
Hooray! We're so happy to hear that. And so happy to have you watching. 😊
Amazing episode! Love this :) Such incredible key take-aways all while being a causal, cool, and connected chat. Thank yooooouuu xoxoxox. The main one that stood out is the element of 'being resourceful' as there's applicability across the board in all realms of relationship and life.
Love this takeaway. So happy you're here, Danielle. xoxo
Loooved this realness and down to earth-ness! And I’d love even more details… like how to get out of the situation when an employee makes costly mistakes, or what exactly does Tana do, does she organize Marie’s ideas, does she do the finances… I struggle with names for certain roles in a company and even when I google it, it’s too general for me to grasp… I need real life examples to connect the dots of “what does that look like”. So more stories and examples would be great.
I also love seeing how Marie has calmed down with the hustle and working-too-hard and has relaxed more into herself… it feels more grounded and more in alignment with self-care and self-love, and obviously it does not take away the energy or thrive.
Truly loved this. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this lovely message, Anne. We're so grateful you're here. 🙏
More of this pls!
We're on it 🥰
Love love loved this! Iv'e just hired a business coach because I'm not that great with the structured "entrepreneur" stuff and this just made me feel so much better about that decision. One of your best Marie 👏💜
Woohoo! We're so excited for you, Lisa! Keep us posted. Grateful for you. xoxo
This is amazing! So many questions... like
How do you keep the team in positive spirits when the pressure is on?
How do you keep everyone focused on the big vision, the overaching goal, when they may not be big picture thinkers as much as you are?
How do you organize your business development part of the business?
How do you choose partnering organizations and which project is next, first?
LOVE these questions, Juli. We'll forward them along 💪 We're so grateful you're here!
I loved this episode. Where have you talked about the Spain trip? I just had some important realizations in Barcelona myself and I'm curious
Shoot us an email at info@marieforleo.com and we'll hook you up. 💖
Maybe there is already a video on this… I’m trying to look through the 900 plus videos to see. Could you point me to or maybe do an episode on building a team, hiring, finding your zone of genius, hiring complimentary team members and figuring out their zone of genius, maybe co operating a company with your spouse. Also maybe which team member positions are most important to hire in what order?
We'd love to hook you up, Aubrey. Shoot us an email at support@marieforleo.com and we'll put together some resources and recs. 💖
Marie and Tana!~ Thank you so much. YES! Zee Heck Yes! I would like to know more of the specifics of email conversations, and responses, and how to think about forming them. Nothing boilerplate. Homegrown, authentic, and with integrity. I am in this strange space where I help people grow their businesses, I am supportive, consistent, and take action. Then crickets. Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadies! I have even done this for no charge! (That is for another convo.) and the Boss People I meet are busy and inconsistent, and I wonder how it is they stay in business! !!!! I will continue to grow and learn and get out of my own way. So YES! MORE of this type of content, please.
Yes, Ashley! We love your confidence and your spirit. And as far as the emails go - are you a B-Schooler?! 😊 Because if not...we need to get you into that program when it rolls around in February. There's a wealth of info (emails included). 💖 Keep going! You've got this.
Love you Marie! Thank you for being so honest. I appreciate this soooo much, as an entrepreneur who is developing and trying to understand how to grow and mature in business, financial intelligence and looking at hiring an assistant
You've got this. Rooting for you! 💪
Loved this interview. Thank you so very much. Loved the part about consistency and wow the $250K story! That’s the first time I heard it. It’s so great to meet Tana! Thank you once again. Inspiring. And thank you for always being honest. And loved the part on values too. ❤
We're so honored you loved this episode, Olya! 💖 Sending big love and gratitude your way. xoxo
Thank you very much, Team Forleo 💗💗💗
OMG!! Resourcefulness. I say it aaalllll the time!!
❤❤❤
Such a good reminder about developing the “muscles” of consistency & the ability to weather entrepreneurial ups-and-downs. Thank you!
Q: Marie, what has been your experience navigating ADHD brain & tendencies with the commitment to consistency? My experience has leaned more toward bursts & inspiration, with a desire to figure out a consistent rhythm to even things out. It’s a work in progress…
This is such a wonderful question. Shoot us a message at support@marieforleo.com and we'll hook you up with some of our best resources and recs. 💪💜
I remember the earthquake. It was centered in VA if I recall correctly...
Hey Marie, I enjoy you your shows sooo real! Wanna meet U some Day, Love From Cape Town South Africa ❤
RESOURCEFULNESS!!! Glory Be to GOD! YES!!!!!!!!!! (and lets hear it for the unibrow! 100% Italian girl here!!) So, Marie, you didn't share about how you made the leap into the investment piece of making that first big hire. I'm only making the $250 you lost, so what is a strategy to overextend without having the whole house come crashing down? Any guidance welcomed.
Eager to know how did Marie persue Josh 😊 pleasemake an episodd on that... I am sure that too would be loaded with lot od subtle insights to create a business and life that you want.
BEST MF episode ever. MORE LIKE THIS PLEASE you absolute legends xxxxx
😭😭😭
How can we all find a Tana in our lives? What is it that we're looking for in terms of skillset, mindset, attiude?
We couldn't agree more. 💖
What tasks does a "vice president of operation" actually do in the business?
Let me guess, the #1 trait - is it:
- integrity?
- responsiveness?
- responsibility?
- courtesy?
- good communication?
- prioritization?
- ability to form, enforce, and support healthy boundaries?
- cleanliness?
- delegation?
Eeeek! That's crazy...I just conducted some interviews today for our business and someone asked me...'what is the one thing you look for in a new hire...?' My answer: resourcefulness 🙏 I AM NOT GOOGLE...GO FIND THE ANSWER!
I am first 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Love from Pakistan ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
“It’s been over twelve years since we’ve been working together…that’s a long ass time!” Really?👀🤦🏻♀️. Scripture says let no man despise thy youth, so I get that it’s a “long ass time” for both of you. Some of us have clothes older than both of you which has come back into style twice…it’s a matter of perspective. Young ladies. Hit me up in 30 more years and then tell me that… you both just lost me there when I was looking forward to some thought provoking content. Sigh 😔
I’m confused why this comment would be offensive. Many job positions in modern times expire within 2-5 years. Most modern workers are encouraged to seek promotions by “company hopping” after two years. Board Members are expected to retire within 5 years. Even presidents have 4-8 year terms.
How could you compare them remarking on a business relationship of over a decade to your clothing? Many people own older material possessions but relationships are a challenge. I find it strange this was considered offensive to you.
Do you have colleagues you’ve worked closely with for 30-years? Because that would be the correct comparison, not still owning an old sweatshirt
