Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Monaye Marcia. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Hi Monaye, great to have you with us today and excited to have you share your wisdom with our readers. Over the years, after speaking with countless do-ers, makers, builders, entrepreneurs, artists and more we’ve noticed that the ability to take risks is central to almost all stories of triumph and so we’re really interested in hearing about your journey with risk and how you developed your risk-taking ability.
I developed my ability to take risks by embracing discomfort as a sign of growth. Life’s challenges taught me that the most significant breakthroughs happen when uneasiness is present and you ‘allow’ it versus shoving it away to return to comfort.
I also rediscovered that situations that happen in life are neutral and your thoughts are the game-changer. I reframed risks as opportunities—less about what could go wrong and more about what I could learn, achieve, or inspire in others.
I’m not saying I jump without looking. I assess the potential outcomes, weigh the pros and cons, and then make bold moves. It’s like playing chess—each risk is a strategic step toward success.
Risks have brought me to where I am today—helping women break free from trauma, rediscover their power, and live unapologetically. That reward? Worth every nerve-wracking decision!
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
I’m a trauma and intimacy coach who helps women rediscover their power, heal from past wounds, and fully embrace lives of freedom, pleasure, and deep connection. My work combines mindset coaching, body positivity, somatic dance and intimacy education to help women reclaim their sensuality and joy—especially after experiencing trauma, divorce, or life transitions.
What I get super excited about is breaking so many taboos for women 35 and older. I tackle the stuff people are too scared to talk about—low libido, menopause, body image, grief, and even the wild ride of polyamorous relationships. There’s something magical about creating a space where women feel seen and heard.
Helping women reconnect with their bodies and enjoy intimacy—whether solo or partnered—is life-changing. For me, when a woman unlocks that part of herself, she becomes unstoppable.
Watching my clients go from stuck and disconnected to confident, vibrant, and thriving LIGHTS me up. It’s a front-row seat to real-life transformation.
My brand is bold, unapologetic, and rooted in truth. It’s where self-love meets sass, and growth meets grit.
Through coaching, digital products, retreats, and even my podcast, Growth the Hell Up, I inspire women to stop settling and start living life on their terms.
I’m excited about the addition of collaborating for Soulful Synergy Experience. At this event I not only teach a concept to jumpstart your next 90 days. In addition, I also teach somatic dance release to remove stuck trauma from the body. The experience travels throughout the country, check to see if we will be in a city near you soulfulsynergyexperience.com
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
1. Emotional Resilience was a skill I’ve learned turn life’s punches into power moves. Resilience isn’t just about surviving; it’s about thriving despite the chaos. Learning to process my emotions and not let them derail my goals is still my top priority.
2. Mindset Mastery allowed me to pay attention and understand that circumstances are neutral and that my thoughts create my results. I’ve taught myself (and my clients) to stop reacting and start strategizing. Shile the flashlight on your thoughts, then you control your life.
3. Fearless Communication is what’s helped me continue to build my business. I’ve always had a way with words—whether it’s coaching or speaking. The ability to connect authentically with others, share my story, and empower them to rewrite theirs has been the cornerstone of my success.
Okay, so before we go we always love to ask if you are looking for folks to partner or collaborate with?
Absolutely, I’m always on the lookout for powerhouse collaborators! Here’s an idea of the dream collaborators:
Coaches, healers, and creators who are passionate about empowering women to heal, thrive, and embrace pleasure unapologetically. Nutritionists, intimacy product creators, or anyone in the self-care and healing space looking to align with a bold, transformational mission. Also, people who want to co-host retreats, workshops, or create juicy, engaging content focused on growth, mindset, intimacy, and self-love.
