About the host:
Kia ora, I’m Marissa Lewis.
I’m a proud Māori woman, Māmā, and the CEO of Marissa Lewis International. My whakapapa grounds me, my whānau keep me steady, and my mahi is about weaving wisdom, strategy, and presence so women can rise without leaving themselves behind.
With more than 20 years in sales, marketing, and communications, and over a decade as a coach, speaker, and retreat facilitator.
I’ve guided wāhine and women globally to step into their voice, their mana, and their leadership.
I’ve trained corporate teams, mentored entrepreneurs, and held sacred space for women to reconnect with the power they’ve always carried.
Because here’s the truth: no matter where you are from, you hold a world of wisdom from your ancestors. When you remember that — when you align your business, your confidence, and your leadership with that inheritance, you stop minimising yourself and start creating the legacy you were made for.
I work with ambitious women in their 40s and 50s who have poured decades into careers, families, and communities, and are now ready to claim their voice, their authority, and their next chapter. Through my Ultimate Confidence Academy™, Connect Retreat™, and one-on-one mentoring, I help women align their vision with their values and lead with both heart and authority.
For me, this isn’t just business. It’s a mission and a legacy: to stand alongside women who are ready to rise into their brilliance, design lives and businesses that feel wildly fulfilling, and create ripples of impact for generations to come.
If you’re ready to move from overlooked to unforgettable, from baseline to brilliant, I’m here to walk that journey with you.

Episode 59: One of the greatest pieces of advice I was ever given when I wanted to step into creating my own money pathways A.K.A. entrepreneurship
Kia Ora Mama!
Welcome back to Grace Through the Fire. I recorded this episode straight from my car, right after a beautiful walk up the maunga on an autumn day—because something powerful stirred in me, and I knew I had to share it with you.
Today, I’m talking about the moment I decided to reclaim my financial sovereignty and step into entrepreneurship. This journey isn’t easy—it asks us to face parts of ourselves we’ve hidden and to hold a mirror to our identity. But mama, when you remember who you are, when you choose to back yourself, confidence begins to grow.
I speak on the realness of the path: the emotional rollercoaster, the setbacks, the courage it takes to keep going, and the transformation that happens when you show up for your vision—especially when it feels too big to carry. If you’ve felt the nudge to become your own boss, build something that’s uniquely you, and live in your fullest expression, this episode is your reminder that you’re not crazy—you’re being called.
I’ll leave you with this:
What are you most afraid of when it comes to your success?
Because it’s often success—not failure—that scares us the most.
Let’s walk this journey together. You were built for this. And I’m so proud of you.
