The Start  – The Story Behind the Mic

Hi!  I’m Marissa! I’m thrilled to announce the launch of my new blog and podcast, TheMarissaEffect, starting this January 2025. This is a dream that’s been brewing for years as I got caught up in the endless “what ifs” (you know how it goes!). But here I am, finally diving in headfirst!

So, what’s TheMarissaEffect all about? It’s simple: connection and community. I’m passionate about learning and sharing—whether it’s fitness, health, travel, finances, or any of life’s intriguing corners. This podcast is my chance to have those inspiring, real, and sometimes hilarious conversations with the people I admire—and invite you along for the journey.

Growing up, my friends always joked, “Marissa, you get so obsessed with people and what they do.” They meant it as a critique, but why is that so bad?! Here’s the thing: I believe being deeply curious is the foundation of meaningful relationships. Connection is everything! After all, if your circle doesn’t inspire you, are you really in the right place to grow?

🌟 Life is a rollercoaster of highs, lows, and everything in between. That’s why building a strong, supportive community has been my north star. We all have stories, talents, and gifts, and by sharing them, we spark inspiration and growth in each other. Whether we’re learning from someone’s challenges or celebrating their triumphs, these connections have the power to change lives—including yours.

✨ Follow TheMarissaEffect for meaningful stories, lots of laughs, and a whole lot of heart. Let’s make magic happen—one episode at a time! 🎙️
