À propos de cet audio

I’m your host, Marla Diann! I’ve been transforming creative entrepreneurs’ lives for over 26 years through two businesses. As a success coach and business strategist, I am passionate about helping entrepreneurs collapse the time frame of achieving their desires and goals. It’s time to make joy your inner GPS for life and business decisions rather than lean on your logic and reason, first. You’ll not only be following what is most authentic to you and for you, but you will live the beautiful life meant just for you. Here at Follow Your Joy Podcast, I aspire for you, the highly talented and passionate creative entrepreneur, to do what brings you joy more often …because you learned to listen to your intuition and take action on that guidance. This is where you’ll find inspiring entrepreneurial stories and solocasts that prove listening to your intuition is certainly the doorway to your wisdom, your genius and your joy. Joy is not to be relegated to a good feeling. It’s a life & business strategy. When we follow our joy and stay tuned into it, we will live a more authentic life. Not sure how to access, use or trust your intuition living in a logical, intellectual world?

  • Redefining Success: A Quantum Leap into Your Soul-Led Future Behind the Scenes of Your Voice Matters + What’s Next for You and Me
    Sep 17 2025

    Welcome back, creative soul! After a summer of reflection and re-airing several of our most impactful episodes through the Summer Reset Series, I’m returning refreshed, excited to jump back into connecting with you on the show—and a renewed devotion to women’s reinvention.

    In this milestone 90th episode, I take you behind the scenes of our sold-out Your Voice Matters: Setting the Stage to Impact Humanity workshop. After nine months of visioning, setbacks, breakthroughs, and co-creation with my brilliant collaborators Laura Chavez Weintraub and Ashley Rivera, we brought to life an unforgettable day of empowerment, vulnerability, and transformation.

    You’ll hear how women—from emerging speakers to seasoned leaders—moved through fear, imposter syndrome, and resistance to boldly own their voices and share their stories on stage. What happened in that room wasn’t just a workshop—it was a call to rise, to speak, to lead with soul.

    And that’s exactly what this episode is about.
    We are not returning to business as usual.
    We are taking a Quantum Leap forward to our future selves.

    This episode is a love letter to the woman who is:

    • Feeling the stirring inside for something deeper

    • Questioning the old metrics of success

    • Craving more joy, play, adventure, sensuality, and desire in her life

    • Tired of the burnout loop and ready to work with her intuition—not against it

    ✨ I’ll guide you through:

    • The origin story of my Creative Achievement Formula — Desires + Goals = Transformation & Results

    • My 2017 burnout that catapulted me into a month-long soul-led adventure in Florence, Italy—and completely redefined my identity

    • Why we must stop neglecting the feminine gifts of creativity, desire, feelings, and intuitive leadership

    • What happens when we build from burnout versus when we create from overflow

    • How to embody your next-chapter self by shifting from “doing” to being—from a verb to a noun

    You’ll also hear about the upcoming Soul-Led Next Level Portal, my 90-day immersive coaching container beginning October 8th, created for women who are ready to:

    • Redefine success from the inside out

    • Create aligned income with less push, more pull

    • Lead with grace, joy, creativity, and power

    • Live and work from the union of feminine energy and productive action

    This isn’t about abandoning your ambition. It’s about amplifying it—with alignment, intuition, and divine feminine leadership.

    This is your invitation to return to the wisdom of your body, your joy, and your soul’s desires. You’re not stuck. You’re being called to a new chapter. And I’m here to help you design it.

    Tune in now and let this episode be your permission slip to redefine what success really means—for you.

  • From Dream to Dolce Vita: Chris Sobolev’s Artful Reimagined Life in Italy
    May 20 2025
    What happens when you follow the whisper of a dream, and it leads you to a whole new life in Italy? Today’s guest, Chris Sobolev, co-owner of Super Savvy Travelers and a rising fine artist, returns to share the extraordinary “after” story of what’s happened since her first appearance on the show in July 2024. For those of you who have been in my world for a while, you know I love all things Italian. If you are new, welcome! My love of Italy began in 1996 when I opened my first business, an entertainment PR company, where I worked with celebrities, visual and performing artists. I named it Capri PR because of my fascination and love of Italy and the Amalfi Coast. Same time, famous author Frances Mayes wrote and released her memoir Under the Tuscan Sun. I was so enamored with her, the story and her lifestyle. I said at the time, “I want her life!” The dream was planted. It was not until 2017 after 9 yrs in my coaching business that I honored that dream thanks to my coach at the time who helped me recover my dreams and make money with joy. The result of that coaching session was a month-long stay in Florence, Italy that changed my life. Three more trips to Italy happened between 2017-2024. This is how Chris and I met as you will find the full story in our conversation. Now, Chris is living the dream she once only imagined—owning several homes in Italy, making art, and running a thriving YouTube channel and Italian Home Ownership business with her husband, Pete. But it wasn’t all la dolce vita at first. In this inspiring follow-up, we talk about the inner and outer transformations that got her there: rebuilding confidence, navigating online and offline stalkers, redefining her worth, and restructuring her business to align with high value clients, joy, authenticity, and ease. Whether you’re dreaming of an Italian lifestyle or longing to unlock your next creative chapter, this conversation is rich with permission, possibility, and practical insight. You’ll hear: The soulful connection that drew Chris (and me!) to Italy What changed in her business and mindset to make her dreams real Her advice for anyone longing to own a home in Italy and how she and her husband consult and take you through the process How art, following her joy, friendship, and inner work fueled her breakthroughs Get ready to be inspired by what’s possible when you say YES to the life your intuition has been whispering to you each day. Find all her ways to connect in show links and how to apply to discuss Italian Home Ownership.

  • You’re Not Stuck, You’re Being Called: A Desires-Led Reinvention. The Woman Entrepreneur’s New Success Paradigm
    May 7 2025
    Today’s episode is for the woman entrepreneur, speaker, coach, author, lifestyle expert, or service professional who’s craving more fun, adventure, play, and joy—while making and increasing consistent income. If you’ve been feeling the shift lately—like something isn’t quite adding up, energetically or financially—you’re not alone. Many brilliant, creative, successful women I work with are sensing it too. This in-between space you’re navigating? It’s not a breakdown. It’s a calling—to something deeper, more aligned, and more authentic than ever before. I want you to live and work from a blend of both Feminine & Masculine energy and traits with Feminine leading the way. It’s a dynamic dance between power & play as you redesign how you operate in your business or career without neglecting your feminine self or diluting your edge. In this elevating conversation, I introduce you to a new paradigm of success: Desires + Goals = Success + Transformation. It’s the foundation of my Creative Achievement Formula, and the core of how I’ve helped women reinvent how they live, work, and lead—with feminine energy leading the way. I created it out of my own serious breakdown to breakthrough. You’ll hear: • How my own burnout in 2017 led to a reinvention by following my desire to Florence, Italy for a month-long stay—and how that changed everything • The reason your desires matter just as much as your goals • What happens when you prioritize pleasure, play, spirituality, and intuition as part of your business strategy • Why suppressing your feminine gifts keeps you disconnected—and how to reclaim them with joy and power • Two stories from clients who’ve shifted into this new way of being and are seeing powerful, life-changing results I encourage you to change the metrics you use for success. I’ll also guide you through a few soul-stirring exercises to begin your own desires-led reinvention today. This is your permission slip to redesign how you achieve success—and finally treat yourself well in the process. Because you’re not stuck…You’re being called. Show Links: A 1-1 zoom call is required to be considered for the cohort. We will explore your life, business and how the cohort fits into all that and if we are a match.
