Summary
Marie Forleo, host of Marie TV and founder of B-School, stops by The Sessions to discuss the ups and downs she's encountered during her rise to the top. Topics include:
4:36 - Marie's original plan for what she wanted to be as a little girl, and why she’s always hated the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?”
5:35 - The promise Marie made to herself after her parents divorce and how it affects her today.
8:39 - How Marie started upselling her services -- at 9 years old! -- to try to make life better for the people around her.
11:17 - Marie’s difficult experience through high school and the “moment of grace” that turned things around.
17:06 - Want your question answered on MarieTV? How Marie decides which ones to answer — and one special time her response made a huge difference in a viewers life.
21:10 - How Marie deals with imposter syndrome and why “having it all figured out” isn’t as important as you might think. Plus, her embarrassing moment before the Steve Harvey show.
26:37 - The mindset shift that got Marie to stop blaming her parents and start taking responsibility for herself.
28:30 - Some of the specifics around how and why Marie lets intuition run her life. It got her a call from Oprah!
34:55 - The Saturday Night Live concept: what we can learn from the long-running show about creating awesome stuff and staying on top.
40:37 - Marie talks relationships, having kids, and accepting the choices we make about our lives.
50:10 - The #1 tragedy Marie thinks we're facing today. Plus, can we save the world by eating less ice cream?!
